<title>rsync sites</title>
<para>The following sites make FreeBSD available through the rsync
protocol. The <application>rsync</application> utility works in
much the same way as the <application>rcp</application> command,
but has more options and uses the rsync remote-update protocol
which transfers only the differences between two sets of files,
thus greatly speeding up the synchronization over the network.
This is most useful if you are a mirror site for the
FreeBSD FTP server, or the CVS repository. The
<application>rsync</application> suite is available for many
operating systems, on FreeBSD, see the
<filename>net/rsync</filename>
port or use the package.</para>
