For one way sync (use USB drive as backup device) I assume there are graphical interfaces to rsync or rdist that can be used. For 2 way sync (disk and laptop may both have been modified between syncs) I would look at unison. It's a kind of 2-way rsync that asks what to do if the same file has been updated on both sides. Sadly, I see that unison isn't being tracked at the latest release in f12, but there are packages called unison213 and unison227. I would try the unison227 package. I have used unison for syncing one folder in my home dir across multiple systems. That way I can drop files I want generally accessible (at work, at home, on the road, etc) into that folder and sync with what I consider my master copy. I can then sync any other of my pc's with the master and access the files offline after the sync. Much like the microsoft suitcase thing. -- birger -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
