That would be the easy thing to do, but there are alot of servers that connected through a high latency WAN. I would like to use a preexisting broadcast server to send the packets to each server using that technology. That way i don't repeat the same data over a already crowded and slow pipe. But yes, just plane old rsync would be much easier :) On Dec 17, 2007 12:52 PM, JD Austin wrote: > > Can't you just rsync from all of those servers to with the source (what is > the difference?) > Shawn Badger wrote: > > Ok, I jumped the gun.
