Hello,
I would like to use rsync client over ftp. I know how to use it with ssh but
it just can't work with ftp or ncftp. The purpose of usign it with ftp is
simple: most webhosting soft. like cpanel or plesk don't monitor ssh
bandwidth usage. You need to monitore it in order to suspend an over-quota
account.
I tried the following:
rsync -avze '/usr/bin/ftp -nv' /tmp/testdir username at server.com:./testrsync/
I dont get any result.
rsync version (I tried with 2 versions):
rsync-2.6.4
rsync-2.5.7-0.1.92mdk
I found nothing on the major search engines.
Thanks,
Phil
