[mythtv-users] MythTV goes mobile!

[Brian Wente]

How about rsync and a wireless connection? so, when you park it in the
garage it will sync itself.

  Using something like rsync could be a better way to transfer files from
"home" to truck.  This would work if you had the disk space.  It will only
copy files that have changed and will delete files from the "truck" if they
are deleted from the "Home" system.  One system is considered a master and
the other a slave.

  Rsync is probably already in your distribution.  If not you can find it on
rsync.samba.org.

  Cheers,

    I haven! 't tried mythweb yet, but this sounds like an interesting way
to
    accomplish what I was after.
    Unfortunately I broke the laptop in the process of setting this all up
    this weekend, so now I am stuck with nothing until I can either fix this
    one or get a new one.
