Hi,
You might want to take a look at rsync
http://hpux.tn.tudelft.nl/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/rsync-2.5.5/

I'm no specialist with it myself ... but at first glance it fits your requirements.

Regards,
Tom

P.S. There are LOTS of threads about rsync in these forums. You might find what you are looking for there.

Hi,
I believe http://hpux.tn.tudelft.nl/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/rsync-2.5.5/readme.html ... answers both those questions.
