I have a linux box server that connects to the PC clients (cwrsync) and uses rsnapshot to rsyncs files over.  I'd like to do the same with the Mac but I'm having trouble finding simple instructions for setting up rsync as a client for rsnapshot and configuring rsnapshot accordingly. Any help would be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

Time machine backup works nearly as rsnapshot, with the advantage, that OS X can hardlink folders.

In particular, rsync is already present. You probably just need to enable incoming ssh on the Mac (system preferences/sharing/remote login), do the appropriate stuff with ssh keys, and then add the Mac to the rsnapshot configuration. That's all I do, anyways ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
