Categories:
Some of the default parameters can be switched on or off on a task.
The following parameters might be switched on/off:
--compress
compress files before transmitting, networked tasks only--delete
delete all files at destination which are not in the source
The following parameters are applied to all tasks and cannot be switched off:
--archive
ensures that all files are transferred with all attributes preserved--verbose
make rsync very outspoken, required for counting files in RsyncUI
RsyncUI does not officially support
rsync daemon:
but there is possible to tweak and enable a rsync daemon setup. But be aware of a rsync daemon setup does NOT encrypt the transfer between client and server. To encrypt the transfer require tunneling traffic in a ssh protocol, see how to setup ssh passwordless logins.Enable rsync daemon
- enabling rsync daemon puts a double colon ::
in address parameter to rsync. It forces rsync to use the rsync daemon remote.
