Re: Synchronization pb : ntfs <--> vfat <--> ext4

Hi Cyrille,

I am a total neophyte on programming and system questions but thanks to 
off-line help from Tõivo Leedjärv have been using Unison 2.53.4 with 
absolutely no problems for the past six months for back-ups to and from 
both Ubuntu (ntfs and ext4) and Windows 11 computers connected to a 
portable SSD. Previously I had quite a few problems backing up with 
Unison to a USB stick - not sure if they have anything to do with yours, 
never really resolved since for me it was easier (and more convenient in 
terms of storage and speed) to migrate to a portable SSD.

Very best,

     John Rose
