Alternatives utilities to rsync

Hi,
I am using rsync to copy files and links from one server to other (backup server).
The problem with rsync is that it is not copying the files and links in the order which i have mentioned.
It is sorting in alphabetical order before it is copying the files and links.
I want a utilty that copies the files in the order which i have mentioned.
Can any one suggest me in choosing an alternative tool to rsync.
when i have searched through the internet i have com across utilitys like bacula
amanda
TaskMaster
dar .........
and so on.
I dont know which one to select.
Can one help me .

Since you have a very similar thread open for that topic already, there is no need to open a new thread.
Please continue with the answer to this question in the original thread, ty.
