Hi again,
	Thanks for the info - as mentioned in an earlier email, I 
wasn't aware that rsync could be used for anything other than an 
rsync client/server relationship - I will investigate this 
possibility. Would it be possible to use rsync with an ftp server or 
is this asking too much.
	Another suggesion also in this thread has mentioned lftp - it 
seems to offer what is needed with FTP, so I will check out both 
options here.
