<OL TYPE=a>
<LI>
What is <B>mirror</B>?<BR>
<BR>
<B>Mirror</B> was designed to duplicate a directory hierarchy between two
machines. It avoids copying files unnecessarily by comparing the file time-stamps
and file sizes before transferring.<BR>

Where do I get <B>mirror</B>?<BR>

What's the latest version?<BR>
<BR>
As of 1 June 1998 the latest version of <B>mirror</B> is mirror-2.9.<BR>
<BR></LI>
<LI>
I am having a problem with <B>mirror</B> - what do I do?<BR>
<BR>
You should first try to run mirror in debug mode and see if this helps
show up what the problem is. Do this by calling <B>mirror</B> with
"-d". Extra "-d"'s will give increasing amounts of debugging
messages.<BR>
<BR>
If you are using a version of perl below 5.004 then upgrade to a newer
release.<BR>
<BR>
If you are still having a problem then email the author at <A HREF="mailto:lmjm@icparc.ic.ac.uk">lmjm@icparc.ic.ac.uk</A><BR>
