Hello,
just being fascinated by rsync I wanted to look at the distribution files
at ftp://rsync.samba.org, but it was not possible to get a ftp connection
to that address. Is the ftp service down there?
Thanks in advance for any soon helpful hint.
Have a nice day
Michael

Howdy... I downloaded the files, but I know I did not use an FTP client. I seem to recall using only my web browser, but the location was someplace other than samba.org. I do show that the DNS address for rsync.samba.org, 66.70.73.150, does have FTP access. The FTP list using IP alone goes up to 66.70.73.179. Just try ftp.samba.org for access.

Today FTP access to those servers was broken between about 09:00 to 13:00 MET. But meanwhile it's running again. Thanks to everyone who was involved fixing that.

Also includes implementations of related algorithms like xdelta. http://www.freshmeat.net/projects/pysync -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ABO: finger abo@minkirri.apana.org.au for more info, including pgp key ----------------------------------------------------------------------
