Rsync Truecrypt

[Stephen Zemlicka]

I thought I found the answer to my problem in the -no-whole-file.  However
this still took as long as the initial transfer but it only actually
uploaded a small bit.  However, my issue is that I cannot run rsync on the
server.  From my tests, rsync will efficiently transfer truecrypt volumes if
you are running rsync correctly (ie. On both ends).  Again, my problem stems
from my mapped drive solution and the lack of rsync on the server.

Hmmm - I had expected that the truecrypt volume would exhibit far too much
entropy for rsync to do an efficient difference based transfer....so I had
planned to run against the mounted tc volume.  I hadn't even planned to test
the throughput!  Should I reconsider?

 

Cheers, Frank.

I have seen people say both that rsync can efficiently copy truecrypt
volumes.  I got it working once with deltacopy but as I'm trying to get it
to work from the command line, I cannot.  It just transfers the whole file.

 

I am using -rvs -inplace switches.  Does anybody have any suggestions?
