RSYNC-SSL-TUNNEL(1) RSYNC-SSL-TUNNEL(1)

NAME

rsync-ssl-tunnel - Allows rsync to tunnel over TLS

SYNOPSIS

rsync-ssl-tunnel

DESCRIPTION

rsync-ssl-tunnel is part of the ftpsync suite for mirroring Debian and Debian-like repositories of packages. As there are way too many mirrors of Debian to populate them all from the machine that generates the archive ("ftp-master"), mirrors are organized in a tree-shaped hierarchy. Thus, every mirror has exactly one upstream from which it syncs, and each mirror can have any number of downstreams which in turn sync from it.
