Is it possible for me using a combination of rsync and ssh, on my computer, to copy files from a remote server which does have ssh access but doesn't have rsync or is it necessary to have rsync on both ends? -- Barry Samuels http://www.beenthere-donethat.org.uk The Unofficial Guide to Great Britain

rsync is required both ends. -- Brett Parker

If there's sftp access, you could use an sshfs mount and rsync that, but it will be less efficient than if rsync is available at both ends.
