hi,

my first post here.

i have knoppix linux 3.1 jan 01 release in iso format

i want to update it to jan 20th release.

i installed rsync for win 9x minimalist approach

http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/rsync/rsync_pc1.html

command i used was :

rsync246 -e ssh -avP
rsync://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/knoppix/KNOPPIX_V3.1-2003-01-20-EN.iso
KNOPPIX_V3.1-2003-01-01-EN.iso

i was able to connect to server, downloaded the
filelist, and it started to update the ISO.

the speed was extremly slow compared to jigdo...it was
taking the same amount of time as to download the
whole cd again.

can anyone plz throw some light on this !!! am i doing
anything wrong ???

also, the size it shows while updating the file is in
bytes or kilobytes ??
