PushSite was originally developed to automate the process of keeping the files on my hosted website in sync with those on my machine over a dial-up connection. It is written in Perl, and provided as free (GPL) software. It has been tested on Linux, HPUX and Microsoft Windows95.

PushSite can detect changes to files held on the local system and update a copy on a remote system via FTP. It can also detect changes made directly to the remote site (basic intrusion detection). Only the amended files are updated thereby conserving bandwidth.

This version, released on 20/1/2 has a number of bug fixes and is recommended for all current PushSite users.
