Restriction enforcement

[Hove, K.W. van (Koen, Student M-CS)]

Dear all,

I noticed that --max-size, --min-size, --exclude, and --include are only sent by the client as a "request" to the server, and that if the server for some reason chooses to ignore those options and include those files in the file list anyway, the client will happily run with it. Is this intentional? And if so, is there another way for the client to enforce that those restrictions are adhered to?

Cordially,
Koen
