Using the cygwin setup now, because smbmount is too flaky for me to use. Rsyncd runs on the server, and a linux machine keeps about 9 gig of files sync'd. And then the other 10 linux systems rsync to a subset of that. It's amazing how much slower it is, it takes something like half an hour or more to build the filelist on the NT server, but a couple minutes on a much lower powered linux system. > but again, rsync under win32 is VERY flakey. For some strange odd reason, it's working ok for me so far. I hope it does, because the first day it pukes and dumps out nothing to the linux machine, I've got 9 gig to copy over 56k wan links again. took a few months running it in the narrow window I have that I can abuse the bandwidth safely.
