All, Does anyone know anything about librsync, and where it is currently maintained on the web? It apparently is/was a samba project, but I'm not sure how it relates. The authors are listed as: Martin Pool <mbp@samba.org> Andrew Tridgell <tridge@samba.org> but I suspect someone else did the 0.9.5.1 update, because only 0.9.5 is available on the rproxy site (http://rproxy.sourceforge.net/download.html). It is used by rdiff-backup (http://rdiff-backup.stanford.edu/) and they have a tarball for 0.9.5.1 on their site, but if you download it and try to compile it you get problems with missing files. I did a diff between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5.1 and there were about 3000 lines modified, so somebody has done a lot of work on it relatively recently. 0.9.5 does compile, but the above site says that it has memory leaks and the rdiff package will not work reliably.

Andrew, Thanks for the effort, but librsync is not rsync. Both used to be part of the overall samba effort, but even then did not share source code. Just last week, librsync got its own sourceforge project site. See http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=3D256348 Now I just need to figure out how to compile it in cygwin.
