Subject: Saving a web site local
Hmmm... I think running r* services on an Internet-facing server is
about
as appealing as playing Russian Roulette with a 9mm. I'm not sure
you'll
find too many people that will do either - at least not someone that
reads
SANS, CERT, or SecurityPortal.

I agree that rsync is a really nifty tool, but is inappropriate for any
network that is untrusted, i.e. the Internet.
