People, Weeks ago I tried this *without* the --exclude flags and overwrote DOT file that I didn't want to. Iust rechecked this use of rsync, saving important files from my work server elseswhere, and see that some files or directories are being listed and copied over. IDoes anything obvious jump out here? gary # ## test2ethos.sh # rsync -Cptuvaz -n -e "ssh -i /home/kline/.ssh/tao_XXXYYYZZZ-id" \ --exclude /home/kline/.zlogin \ --exclude /home/kline/.zshrc \ --exclude /home/kline/.zhistory.* \ --exclude /home/kline/.ctwrm \ --exclude /home/kline/.mozilla \ --exclude /home/kline/.evolution \ --exclude /home/kline/4zip/ \ --exclude '/home/kline/www/' \ /home/kline kline@ethos:/home/kline if [ $? = 0 ] then echo "rsync transfer went okay: tao to ethos" else echo "rsync failed to ethos from /home/kline"|mail kline@thought.org fi -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
