Right. I am *sort of* familiar with rsync. I think it's part of the
technology that is behind Gentoo's emerge, isn't it?

Anyway, my needs right now are more tactical. I don't (yet) see a long term
need for doing rsync, but it could happen. The data I'm copying is currently
a very large library I've built through purchases and downloads which I use
in Windows and is becoming useful under Linux. The Windows box happens to be
dual boot, so it was easier for me to use scp, with help from the group
here, than deal with Samba between Win ME and Linux.

Thanks again for your help, and the help of everyone here.
