You tried using the cwrsync? This is a Windows designed version of Rsync. I've no trouble with file transfer speed from my 2003 server to XP/NAS or to a Linux machine. -- Stuart Halliday -Original Message- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Date: Sat, 6 Sep 2008 13:27:21 +0200 Subject:

New bie Q - fault tolerance of the rsync tool

If Rsync can't pass on the changes, it'll report an error on each file it can't change and eventually stop. It's up to you to detect this and rerun your rsync script. P.S. Tip: You'll get more people reading your postings if you give meaningful subject titles. -- Stuart Halliday -Origina

So it is really a rsync implementation on windows that lacks of something. Any other ideas? Thank
