Rsync 1

[adrianday]

I have heard of using Rsync in order to replicate a data volume from one server to another. The notes I have found so far refer to nterprise branch office. We have not got this situation. All we have are 2 standard Netware servers. Can anyone help with what i need to do in order to setup both the servers and start a replication.
regards
Adrian

Have you looked at

http://samba.org/rsync

?

I don't think Novell offically supports the use of Rsync outside of the Branch Office product but that's not to say it cannot be done. I have read and heard of many people that are using it with Netware with varing degrees of success.

Sorry I'm not much help here,

Ed

they do support it

havent played with it - but looks fairly straight forward - if you login to prtal or is it apache web admin - then there is a page to config it

the install is just an nlm
