Managers,
I have 2 questions:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question #1
I am using nrdist to keep some directories on 2 machines in sync. The
following is a sample of one of the entries in my distfile:
LOCAL_SCRIPTS = (/usr/local/bin/*)
scripts: ${LOCAL _SCRIPTS} -> remote_host
install -oremove ;
The man page for nrdist says the following for the -oremove option:
Remove extraneous files. If a directory is being updated, any files that
exist on the remote host that do not exist in the master directory are
removed. This is useful for maintaining truly identical copies of
directories.
I have found from time to time that there are files in /usr/local/bin on
remote-host that no longer exist on the master.
After reviewing the sample in the man page, I wonder if I need to change
/usr/local/bin/* to /usr/local/bin. Or is there something else wrong?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question #2
I use Emacs as my editor of choice. The problem is that when typing
scripts the tabs are set to 8. I would like to be able to set them at 4.
I have searched the manual and not had any success in figuring out how to
do this.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
