<li> Brian Elliott Finley has put together a great Linux install system based
on rsync. You you read about it at <a href="http://thefinleys.com/SystemImager/">http://thefinleys.com/SystemImager/</a>
+<li><a href="http://www.dirvish.com/">Dirvish</a> is a fast, disk based,
+rotating network backup system that was originally written by JW Schultz.

<li><a href="http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/">BackupPC</a>: a backup
system using rsync. Hard-links all identical files (even between multiple
runs and multiple backup sources), compresses the files, provides an easy
script that uses config files to setup multiple backup scenarios and
invokes rsync (or rsyncX on MacOS).
+<li>For those wanting to use launchd to run an rsync daemon (e.g. Mac
+OS X Tiger users), Glen Scott provides the necessary

-<li> Thomas Roessler has written a rsync wrapper for efficient, safe
-CVS mirroring. See <A HREF="ftp://riemann.iam.uni-bonn.de/pub/users/roessler/cvslock/">ftp://riemann.iam.uni-bonn.de/pub/users/roessler/cvslock/</A>
+<li>There are a few choices for making rsync work with OS X's resource forks.
+One is the official apple patch found on their opendarwin site, such as
+<a href="http://darwinsource.opendarwin.org/10.4/rsync-20">this one</a>
+(I've heard patch inefficiently transfers the entire resource fork information
+for every file on every transfer.) Another choice is to use a third-party
+adapted rsync, such as
+<a href="http://archive.macosxlabs.org/rsyncx/rsyncx.html">rsyncx</a> or a
+<a href="http://www.quesera.com/reynhout/misc/rsync+hfsmode">rsync+hfsmode
+patch</a> by D Andrew Reynhout. For the future, I would like to see an rsync
+that supports ACLs and Posix xattrs adapted to interact with resource forks in
+a seamless way (if that's possible).

+<li>If you need a 2-way synchronization because both ends of the transfer may
+be changing files, you may want to either look into a tool designed to do this
+(e.g. <a href="http://freshmeat.net/projects/unison/">unison</a>), or you may
+wish to use an external wrapper for rsync that keeps extra data about what was
+in the last transfer so that it can figure out if a file is new or deleted
+(e.g. <a href="http://freshmeat.net/projects/drsync/">drsync</a>).
