Hi Torok Edwin and friends,
Thank you for your reply, it's very useful. I would like to confirm some
small concerned things

Wrong, ClamAV doesn't use rsync at all!

ClamAV does not use rsync for updating database between client and mirror, *but
it uses rsync for synchronizing database between mirrors, is it right?*

In this question, i would like to ask whether i can use windows-server
for *building
public-windows-mirror or not, is it possible* ? If one windows-server is
setup to provide full functionalities(rsync, sshd) as in
clamav-mirror-howto.pdf, *does clamav-team support windows-mirror?* I don't
want to use windows, but it is requirement from my boss.

But because of it is private mirror, so i need to download whole file from
public server each time i update virus database on my private mirror. It is
not good if the network is unstable. Of course, in my local network is no
problem. *Does it have any solution for only download diff file and patch it
to old file? *

Thank you very much.

Best regards.
