This should give you an idea about the worst-case date transfer (it ignores the ssh compression advantage): rdiff-backup --remote-schema 'pv -b -N Upload | ssh %s '\''rdiff-backup --server'\'' | pv -b -N Download' SOURCE DEST (uses pv - "Pipe Viewer", Ubuntu package for example: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/pv ) Jakob _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
