The proto file describes which files/dirs under the replica clientroot/serverroot you want to be replicated. You must write this yourself, though it is fully documented, see proto(2). As you want to replicate between many machines you might be better off with nemo's repl which was published on here on 9fans recently, repl appears to be a peer-to-peer rather than client-server system, though I don't know any other differences (over to you Capt'n ?) -Steve
