Ok here we go with a first crack at it:
rsync -az 64.231.64.9::gimp gimp
Notes:
The address can change without warning as it is assigned by DHCP.
I'll set up something to stick the new address on a web page RSN.
The rsync daemon is running on my 486 NFS server, niced to 19.
Thus, it might be a little slow with compression, and I have
disabled checksums.
Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.
Cheers,
Tom
