Hi folks,
Due to a certain need, I hacked together a FTP-based "push" mirror last
night, i.e. a program which will copy the local directory to some remote
site which is only accessible by FTP. Obviously if I had better access
I'd be using rsync or some such. Now, it seems to me like this might be
a non-unique scenario, and surely someone has solved the problem before,
but the only pre-existing code I could find either assumes you've got
shell access, or is so horribly put together that a single software
version change would break it - and may already have (this is something
called PushUpdate, if you're about to recommend it to me. It was written
by someone who is taking advantage of the fact that Perl syntax is very
C-like, and also uses system() a lot to do things like FTP).
So. Does anyone know of, or have in their toolkit, a push mirror of,
say, the flexibility of the canonical "pull" mirror program?
Cheers,
Waider.
