| Fsync is a Perl script which allows for file synchronization between remote
hosts, containing functionality similar to that of the rsync and CVS
packages. Since fsync is a single Perl script, setting up file
synchronization on a new machine is relatively simple. Communication
between the hosts is via a socket mechanism, with the remote server started
by rsh, by ssh or manually. The program was written with slow modem
connections in mind. Fsync supports the concept of merging differences from
local/remote hosts with hooks for tools to merge the trees. Fsync requires
perl 5.004 or newer. This program is licensed under the GNU Public License. |
