I've seen problems with our SuSE Linux installation- and updateserver. After moving to a bigger disk I had trouble with SuSE complaining about corrupted rpm-files. To moved the data by copying everything to an other machine and back, but I do not remember the details how this happened. So I wasn't able to track the problem down to it's cause yet. :-( The corruption doesn't concerned the filesize in this case. This happened on SuSE Linux 9.2 i686, maybe x86_64 too. I used the default rsync that came with SuSE 9.2: rsync version 2.6.3pre1 protocol version 28 Copyright (C) 1996-2004 by Andrew Tridgell and others <http://rsync.samba.org/> Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, acls, symlinks, batchfiles, inplace, IPv6, 64-bit system inums, 64-bit internal inums, SLP I'm going to have a look at that now :-/ cu, Stefan -- Stefan Nehlsen | ParlaNet Administration | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | +49 431 988-1260
