Also use our zlib rather than the one in the distfile. Unfortunately the KAME IPv6 diff will not apply to the 2.3.2 code, and has thus be turned off. :-( PR: 15880 Submitted by: Maxim Sobolev <sobomax@altavista.net> [zlib changes]

rsync is a replacement for rcp that has many more features.
|
|
|
|
rsyns uses the "rsync algorithm" which provides a very fast method for
|
|
bringing remote files into sync. It does this by sending just the
|
|
differences in the files across the link, without requiring that both
|
|
sets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand.
|
|
This makes rsync a good remote file distribution/synchronization utility
|
|
in a dialup PPP/SLIP environment.
|
|
|
|
Note, requires rsync on the destination machine.
|
|
|
|
There is a Computer Science Technical Report on the rsync algorithm is
|
|
included in the distribution, and is available as
