How do people go about synchronizing multiple workspaces on different workstations? I tend to wind up with projects spread around the various machines I work on. I find that placing the directories on a server and reading them remotely tends to slow things down. thanks, Eric -- Eric Turkheimer, PhD Department of Psychology University of Virginia PO Box 400400 Charlottesville, VA 22904-4400

...vices are not removed, I'm getting a bit different message: kernel: usb 2-1: USB disconnect, address 4 kernel: visor 2-1:1.0: device disconnected I've just started playing with my Palm under Linux, and so far I've only noticed this when using PPP over USB. So far when doing plain-old synchronzation (to gnome Palm applet) it seems that devices are always created and removed as expected. Has anybody else noticed this and/or has advice what to do?

...asurement I did shows that uncompressing the file before transfer gives an improvement of a factor of 10. [.tar.bz2 files synchronize fairly efficiently over rsync if most of the archive contents are unaltered. However, if the archive files all contain many small changes (e.g. a database dump), the synchronzation is little better than scp.] Yes, I do know that the real solution is not to use rsync to transfer compressed files in the first place. So this is just a nice idea (to transparently do the most obvious thing) rather than a suggestion of great importance. Thanks very much, Richard -- Config...

...n a linux machine (called SUDONG)...The machine on wich the rsync script will started. The remote machine (called SAKRA) is another linux machine with a Samba server. The SAKRA FAT partition is exported via samba. The SUDONG machine has to mount the SAKRA FAT partition using smbmount. I want to synchronze the local FAT partition (/mnt/win/...) with the (remote) SAKRA FAT partition (/mnt/sakra/win/...) exported via samba. The following script is supposed to do that. #!/bin/sh smbmount //sakra/win /mnt/sakra/win/home/ -o username=verjus smbmount //sakra/projects /mnt/sakra/win/projects/ -o use...
