Hi Sean, Yeah, that's exactly what I was looking for, thanks! Except for one thing -- it doesn't seem to want to work for me at the moment: --- # debmirror -e rsync -r :debian /d02/debian/unstable/ dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: No such file or directory at /usr/bin/debmirror line 399. releasing 1 pending lock... at /usr/lib/perl5/LockFile/Simple.pm line 182. --- But it's definitely there. Am I missing something or am I the only person this is happening to? Thanks again, Bill -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
