RE: [cobalt-users] copy raq2 to raq2 one-on-one

Ummm...since you guys are top posting, this thread is screwed anyway. In the
interests of getting the info out there I'm top posting to finish the job,
In future please *don't* top post. It's in the monthly META-FAQ published by
Dom Latter. Doubtless you've received a copy no???
Yeah...if he had a test machine ghost would copy one entire disk to
another...true. But I think all he wants to do is copy site files over

rsync comes to mind, it's going to do what you need also...and is reasonably
easy to install and use.
More info can be found at: http://rsync.samba.org/ Be sure to invoke their
FAQ-O-Matic which produces a truly *informative* *useful* FAQ.

Useful examples of rsync scripts in action can be found here:
http://rsync.samba.org/rsync/examples.html

If anyone else has anything to add to this thread I suggest starting a new
email and dropping relevant sections into it. This way we can restore
correct bottom posting protocol.

What about using ghost. Take the hardrive out of each machine and put into a
test machine. Pop if your ghost disk. Do a ghost from disk to disk.

Done.
