Thanks all for the mails. I will explain a little more what I intend to do. I want to mirror a server. But that mirroring should happen every 5-6 hours. There are few users on server A. If that server fails due to hardware failures I should be able to migrate the whole system to server B with least possible downtime and least data loss. I have never ever used rsync or scp or these tools in my life. Can someone give an example? One example was rsync -azvv, where do i tell it to get only new and modified files? I have skimmed the manpage of rsync. Just an afterthought, if I add users on A can they be duplicated on B automatically? What is the logic I should use here? Thanks a lot again and bye.
