It seems to me that the irreducible note of the problem-space is make these two files the same Which is good, because that is also the hardest/cleverest part (the rsync delta protocol). The need for the most flexibility is in determining the list of files. So we need to make sure the boun

Let's not argue. You were saying modularity is not impossible, I was saying it's not trivial. We're both right. The rsync code needs to be replaced eventually, both because it needs to be cleaned up and because there is too much hardcoded structure. Small hooks can be fitted into the existing

Hmm, I'll try to help. If you're running rsync daemon mode using port 873/tcp, you can filter the ipchain by the port number. (There is an entry in services for 873/udp - does anyone know if this is this used, or just reserved?) Something as little as: /sbin/ipchains -A output DENY -i $extif 8
