Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Expect in Bash - and then compare md5sum Post 302977840 by drl on Friday 22nd of July 2016 09:48:52 AM

Hi.

I'll take the blame for this.

I had hoped that my quote from the rsync man page would encourage the OP to look farther into rsync. A more complete explanation of the workings of rsync can be found at rsync - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If that is too difficult or does not meet the OP's requirements, then the MD5, sort, and compare steps seem reasonable to me.

Best wishes ... cheers, drl
