That patch opens up a huge security hole in daemon servers, so that would have to be handled somehow (perhaps by making those options auto-refused). There are also several bugs/deficiencies that would need to be fixed (my updated patch--see below--lists the ones that I saw but didn't fix). Even if all that were done, I'd still be hesitant to add these options, though. I've just updated the several-year-old patch, and committed it into the patches dir: http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/rsync/patches/source-filter_dest-filter.diff ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
