--- Comment #1 from itpp11 <i...@ecsystems.nl> 2011-11-18 11:35:57 UTC --- While trying to find a workaround via ssh, like: plink -ssh -v -C -L 875:localhost:873 -l root %NASDEST% -pw %rootPW% -m sshcmds.txt Where sshcmds.txt contains cp(copy) commands to get future copies of backup files ready for a delta-overwrite on the remote(server) side I stumbled on rsync's fuzzy! which does what I was looking for! For example: rsync -vtrz --inplace --delete-after --fuzzy --copy-dest="/88_John_Cleese2" "/88_John_Cleese" "test@127.0.0.1::test/test/" Will copy a new file to its destination and when a similar file is found IN the destination it will use that existing file as a Delta base ! Also the --copy-dest will tell the rsync server to look there as well for possible matches to the new file. The only thing which isn't documented, is it possible to use: --copy-dest="/*" so that the entire destination is searched for a match ? And how do you provide multiple destinations ? Ea. is this allowed: --copy-dest="/88_John_Cleese2";"/88_John_Cleese4" Or do we need to repeat the command ? --copy-dest="/88_John_Cleese2" --copy-dest="/88_John_Cleese4" -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
