Moin, this is something for the wish list: a 'rsync in the middle' mode. It would make sense: rsync is running at a server. Copyying files from one maschine to a file server. rsync root at client:/var/tmp/in tomcat at fileserver:/opt/ Would this be possible without breaking the hard link mechanism?

The source and destination cannot both be remote :-(

If you have a half-duplex connection, yes, the bandwidth consumption would double. --Kyle
