A free perl/rsync backup script
I tried rsyncx awhile back and had problems with it hanging on certain files, it would then fill up a massive log file and take up all the space on my disk. Not good if it's backing up at night / at weekend when you are away.

psync also deals with resource forks and data forks - which is a facility lacking in the vanilla unix command rsync

The commandline replacement for rsync installed with RsyncX has HFS+ and resource fork compatibility (assuming the RsyncX version of rsync has been installed onto both computers involved). The other added benefit of the RsyncX replacement is that it can be invoked without superuser access. When trying to add Psync to my scripts it always needed SU access, thus making it useless for automatic backups (Though I do concede that I don't know that much about the commandline, so I could have been doing it wrong). rsync, on the other hand, doesn't need superuser access. --- |
