Hugo,

Thanks for your reply.

We're running under Sun Solaris 2.6 & 2.7

The man pages for rdist - shows info for remote file distribution.
There are no man pages for rsync or supper.

How would rdist help me?

I indicated I'm a developer w/o root/admin privileges. Also we are prevented from creating/updating .rhosts files.

dwww-format-man

DWWW-FORMAT-MAN(8)						      Debian							DWWW-FORMAT-MAN(8)

NAME

       dwww-format-man - batch format manual pages for dwww

SYNOPSIS

       dwww-format-man [-v|--verbose] directory ...

DESCRIPTION

       dwww-format-man	looks  for manual pages in the directories named on the command line.  It formats each manual page, and puts the formatted
       version into the dwww document cache.  System administrator's can run dwww-format-man if they want to make it  faster  to  retrieve  manual
       pages  via  dwww.   If  dwww-format-man	is  not  run, dwww will automatically format manual pages not in its cache.  Long pages take a few
       moments to format, but rarely so slow that it is worth running.

       dwww-format-man runs dwww-convert(8) with privileges of DWWW_CGIUSER (see dwww(7).

OPTIONS

       -v, --verbose
	      Print each proceeded file name.

SEE ALSO

       dwww(7), dwww-convert(8).
