Dear All,
I have searched the email archive but i didn't find a clear
answer(maybe I miss it) ^^
1. Does rsync run on TCP/IP?
Rsync has a server mode. Read the manual, and particularly the
"--daemon" option.
2. Without ssh, then rsync will be transferred in plain text?
If you don't use SSH (or another encryption encapsulation, such as
sslproxy), the data will be transferred in plain text.
3. Does rsync support Samba? Am I true to say that rsync, which is
mainly on user authetication, is transparent to the storage like
ftp?
rsync works on the file system. It doesn't care what the file system is.
If it's a samba mount, then that's ok. I am not aware of a FTP
filesystem, and therefor can't say that it will work over ftp.
Any help to any questions will be appreciated! Thank You!
Regards,
Fred
