Thanks for mentioning batch mode. It seems that only an option to load and save aq file list from a file would be needed. Given this capability together with the batch mode it should be possible to do what I want. The archives are way too big to fit onto a memory stick or even to a laptop hard disk... (several hundreds of gigabytes, but the content is mainly static, deltas are typically in the range of several hundreds of megabytes, a little more in some cases) Unfortunately it is not possible to access both hosts over the network given the proxy restrictions. Thanks for thinking about my problem. I am considering to hack rsync or perhaps try some fake filesystem using FUSE on linux in order to provide the source list for the batch.
