Sorry for the junk mail, it seems my last post was lost in the ether, despite being successfully delivered to lists.samba.org (!) Very frustrating, since I didn't keep a copy of it. My question was regarding what might be called symmetric mirroring, where two sets of identical files, both being simultaneously updated, are periodically syncronized. Has anyone implemented this? I posted a script which I think would work. If my original post doesn't show up I guess I'll have to type it in again. At any rate, implementing it in rsync doesn't seem like it would be too difficult. Thanks, Rich
