The way I would do this is: on the master, rsync -ae ssh /home/httpd/htdocs/ replica:/home/httpd/htdocs/ cron this command to run as often as you want. To use ssh as a tunnel set up an ssh key (man ssh-keygen, man ssh.) You might want to consider using forced command on the replica (put command="rsync server blabblabla" in the begining of the key line.) you can see what the command would be by dding verbosity, -v, flags to the above command. There are other ways to do it, but that is how I would do it. If you use ssh it won't matter so as if the network is not secure. > Eagerly waiting to hear .. > Thanks and regards > Somraj > -- > To unsubscribe or change options: > http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync > Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html > -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
