    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to TORSTEN BAMBERG on Saturday, January 12, 2019 19:45:20
    I have been struggling with getting rsync installed on my warp 4 box. It continues to complain about things being missing (including things the almost nonexistent docs did not say were prerequisites), and I got most of them after chasing a bunch of dead links. However, I obtained TCPIP32 and it still says it cannot find it.

    I am guessing rsync only works on select boxes, like if they are pretty new and the owner got lucky and it didn't complain about anything. :)

    Well, did you fetched a quite new version? If you do so, you need an additional
    environment, called 'unixroot' and a large number of dll's.

    No, rsync works in his own directory. Take a look in your inbound. I sent you my setup and files with the needed dlls. Just extract, and run one of the rexx-scripts.

    I hope it helps.
