One or two colons with rsync?
I was reading about the different ways to run rsync. It looks like
connecting to an rsync deamon is very similar to connecting to an
rsync shell like ssh.

Are there situations where the deamon is superior to the ssh? Are
there situations where ssh is superior to the deamon?

Thanks,

rdiff

rdiff(1)						      General Commands Manual							  rdiff(1)

NAME

       rdiff - compute and apply signature-based file differences

SYNOPSYS

       rdiff [options] signature old-file signature-file

       rdiff [options] delta signature-file new-file delta-file

       rdiff [options] patch basis-file delta-file new-file

USAGE

       You  can  use  rdiff  to  update  files, much like rsync does.  However, unlike rsync, rdiff puts you in control.  There are three steps to
       updating a file: signature, delta, and patch.

DESCRIPTION

       In every case where a filename must be specified, - may be used instead to mean either standard input or standard  output  as  appropriate.
       Be aware that if you do this, you'll need to terminate your options with -- or rdiff will think you are passing it an empty option.

RETURN VALUE

       0  for successful completion, 1 for environmental problems (file not found, invalid options, IO error, etc), 2 for a corrupt file and 3 for
       an internal error or unhandled situation in librsync or rdiff.

SEE ALSO

       librsync(3)

       The original rsync algorithm was discovered by Andrew Tridgell.

       rdiff development has been supported by Linuxcare, Inc and VA Linux Systems.
