True; but that is biting a bit: I create a large file, it gets backed up, and the next day I send it to my parents behind a slow (asymmetric) DSL link. The subsequent backup of their machine will then require the full file transferred back upstream. As I wrote in my previous mail, if rsync provides a way to request the full file checksum from the peer, then this could be a nice optimisation to BackupPC. -- martin | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ when everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. spamtraps: mad...@ma... |
