rsync ConTeXt minimals through a firewall

rsync ConTeXt minimals through a firewall

[Piotr Kopszak]

Hello, 

I guess it's possible, but I wasn't able to rsync the ConTeXt minimals via ssh. Any chance for tarballs available instead? Or maybe someone succeeded to rsync from behind a firewall?


Best

Piotr

I guess that you would need to have account on the garden (or maybe
I'm misinterpreting the purpose of rsync+ssh). I'm not the best person
to ask about server issues.

There is http://minimals.contextgarden.net/pragma/ (though I do not
100% guarantee that they are always up to date they should be OK -
rebuilding the files is triggered by some events, I would need to
check which ones exactly.)

I guess that you need TCP port 873, but if anyone has a suggestion how
to overcome this limit, we would gladly implement it on the server.
(Maybe setting rsync server on port 80 is doable if we use some other
domain?)
