Synchronizing Packages

["Adam R. B. Jack" <aj...@trysybase.com>]

Leo (et all)

Do you do some sort of rsynch from Sam's machine in order to get installed
packages? I am trying to help set up another Python Gump and  wondered if
there was some sort of commandline I could cron to synch from your to there
(using ssh and my account). Thoughts?

BTW: I worked on the .cvspass problem recently, and on the odd days my
company's network allows me to your machine, I'll check it out. Hopefully
CVS (and the build) will start to work better w/ that.

BTW: Could you explain again about the problem with having to nicing Python
Gump or it spawns to fast for something to keep up? Thanks in advance.

regards

Adam

nope. Probably should, though :D

sure, you chould use something like

rsync -av --delete --rsh="ssh"
	ajack@lsd.student.utwente.nl:/data/gump/opt .

note this requires an ssh account on my machine :D. See the rsync 
manpage for details...

firewalling off port 22 is just dumb!

The error in gumpy.html with code 256 mean that python was unable to 
spawn a process through os.system(), or was able to but the process 
exited with code 1 (see the docs for the function). I thought that it 
meant it was unable to spawn a process at all...that turns out to be 
incorrect :$

cheers!
