Hi, I have a PC at home running Debian with no connection to the net. To keep it up-to-date, i have a mirror of ftp.debian.org. It is quite some work to update it; currently I do it by taking my Packages file, making sort and diff and grep till I have the new Packages, get them via wget, put them on zip disks and take them home.
Ok, this works, but is not really pretty. I wonder if anybody has a script that can sync two sites via floppy net, e. g. by taking a ls -lR from home and checking on the ftp server what has changed etc. (The Debian "mirror" script can only sync two sites that are both on the net.) Such a script would be valuable for many Debian users, I guess, so if you feel you could write it, do so or give me some hints how to...
