[PLUG] Comparing files

[Daniel.Roberts at sanofi-aventis.com]

Thanks for all the advice!
How can I go about figuring out perhaps if I could mount these windoze fileshares onto my linux system..
I am not very familiar with samba and all..
Thanks!
Dan

You can get rsync on Windows using any of the "Services for UNIX", Cygwin, or MSYS solutions.  Theoretically, I think, you could also natively compile it since it is fairly POSIX-portable, but I don't know anyone who did.

I would personally recommend SFU as your first stop, then MSYS, then finally Cygwin, but YMMV.

Given you were posting to a Linux list, though, I imagine most people envisioned this being a Linux question and all.
