Thanks! I do not quite see how you manage monitoring with your approach, nor how you can avoid transmitting data that has already been cached (which is important for me as I can only move data by carrying floppy discs from one place to another). In the end I installed an instance of wwwoffle on the computer with net access under my home directory, I carry a tar file of outgoing/ there every day, run wwwoffle -fetch from a script, and in the evening I transfer a tar file of `find wwwoffle-directory/spool/ -newer some-time-stamp` back to the other computer. Though the details are different, the important idea of simply running wwwoffle on both computers I got from your solution. Thanks again, Albert.
