If you want current source you can either get it directly from cvs per the instructions or with rsync rsync://rsync.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/rsync !!!!!!!!!!!! Martin, can we either get the nightly snapshots working again (http://ftp.samba.org/ftp/rsync/nightly/) or get rid of them. Those are more than a year out of date predating the latest annointed release by about six months. This is worse than no CVS snapshots. ftp://rsync.samba.org/pub/rsync/cvsroot.tar.gz is even more out of date. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.
