The problem here is that I would then edit the php files. And break my rsync setup :( The server is behind a link of 8Mbit/s for a whole university. Meaning more than 2000 pc are constantly using it. I would of course do the rsync at night, but each bit I spare is good. I think the only solution would be a change upstream of the php website.

With kind regards, Mark Scholten
