The patch for KDE 4.3 if you want to test it is available here. You need libssh 0.3.2 to get it working but I suggest to use the libssh v0-3 git branch which has fixes found by kio_sftp testers. Thanks to all of them!

There is still work which needs to be done. I have to cleanup the code and test all the features (resume of files, recursive deletion). Today I've copied successfully the first files to my webserver!

I've uploaded the two files to my webspace, here. Remeber that it's not finished yet! You need libssh's v0-3 git branch to get it working. I've found serveral bugs during the week. I will release libssh 0.3.2 next week.

Thanks to Dirk Müller who answered all my question and helped me with the KDE stuff.

Benchmarks will follow soon too.

There is still a dialog missing for special interactive questions, but the normal user stuff works just fine.

This week is another openSUSE Hack Week. I'm in the SUSE office in Nürnberg with some KDE developers. Dirk Müller helps me with the implementation. I'm normally not a C++ developer so it is a good oppurtunity to get help and things done. More on Wednesday. The weather will be good tommorow so I plan to go climbing.

It uses widely adopted protocols like smb or sftp so that there is no need for a server component of csync. It is a user-level program which means there is no need to be a superuser.

Read more about the release here. A new version of csync with full sftp support will be released soon.

To support sftp I'm using libssh. libssh is designed to be used by programmers needing a working SSH implementation by the mean of a library. I think it is nearly feature complete. I've cleaned up the sftp interface last year. The only thing missing was ssh-agent support. This is implemented now in the subversion trunk and will be released as libssh 0.3. I hope we can do a release soon.

It uses uses widly adopted protocols like smb or sftp so that there is no need for a server component of csync. It is a user-level program which means there is no need to be a superuser. With pam_csync it is possible to create roaming home directories.

This version fixes several bugs to increase the stability of the file synchronizer. It provides a new plugin to synchronize two replicas with the sftp protocol. To get the csync sftp plugin working you need libssh 0.2 with the following two patches:

Map permission fields
Errno mapping

The libssh package in the network:synchronization:files project in the build service has these two patches. The csync version of the BS project provides a csync-plugin-sftp package.

Packages for Fedora 9, openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 can be downloaded here.
