Hi,

I am facing with the bug followed:
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4531

rsync will always get the older symlink of the other side overwrite
the newer one on the local side.

Wayne has suggested to use unison, however it is a non-developing old
project that I have suspect to use.

What can you suggest me for ?

My main aim is to syncronize file, directories, links for 2 nodes.
