I think what Adams saying does make alot of sense. We do a small amount of
rdiff's with some of our update servers, and haven't had any problems with
that. we mainly use i to update the a.v on out mail servers, mainly
becuase we can just copy all the new updates across, set 4times a day via
cron.
Dunno why i just added that, just thought i'd say something or other :)
