In earlier days I was using #unison to two-way (mostly manually) sync a directory between hosts. But this is becoming a huge problem, as unison requires the very same version on both sides, and my systems are quite different these days.

What other Linux tools out there can do a reliable two-way sync of a directory?

#Linux#Sync#Copy

“When there was only analog #tape, making a physical copy of your tapes was the #backup (aka “safety copy”). One problem is that this is not actually an exact #copy. The backup goes through multiple stages of analog circuitry and cabling, and it ends up residing on a totally different magnetic tape – all factors guaranteeing that it won’t be exactly the same as the original.

Due to tape deck discrepancies or incorrect settings, the copy could even sound different than the original. It also took the industry many years to realize that #analog tapes (primary or backup) might not last forever, and, due to poor storage and sticky-shed syndrome, many old tapes have been pulled out of storage only to have them disintegrate and self-destruct!”
