Thanks! The Grsync package from the Nux repository does seem to work so far (3 days, light usage). Since I am obsessive about updating using yum, after installation I immediately disabled the Nux repository from updating, due to the dire warnings in the Centos documentation about the risks of using add-on repositories. So far so good. And FWIW, I do like, and use the CLI all the time. That's how I learned - using MS-DOS 3.2 on a 386sx box with 360k floppy drives. And 512k ram - what luxury! : ) On Fri, Mar 6, 2015 at 7:33 AM, Jonathan Billings <billings at negate.org> wrote: > On Thu, Mar 05, 2015 at 04:30:15PM -0600, Francis Gerund wrote: > > 5) If Grsync was in centos before, why was it removed?
