That would be possible, yes, but it might be tricky to get it efficient (since you would either need to poll the socket data while scanning the directories or to use a separate thread). This double scan only occurs when the --delete option is used, so one change you can try is to switch over to using --delete-after. This ensures that the transfer completes before the receiving side starts its directory-deletion scanning, making the timeout less disruptive. If this works for you and if you have a hard time getting your users to change their habits, you could even install a custom rsync that would interpret --delete as --delete-after. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
