When an IP address changes, no amount of rsync will fix it. The IP address is simply out of band.
- geocar 7y agoIf someone can change your IP addresses on you, I have news for you: you’re not on the Internet but on someone else’s network who is on the Internet. I got my addresses from ARIN so my host numbers only ever changed when I thought it was convenient. But whatever. You’re still wrong: Rsync is instant. DNS requires waiting for caches or an admin task to bounce the nameservers.
