Failure with '-D' and '--specials': 2007-01-29 14:34:16 full backup started for directory ROOT 2007-01-29 14:34:17 Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed) 2007-01-29 14:34:22 Backup aborted (fileListReceive failed) Log file from host: 2007/01/29 14:15:47 [9432] name lookup failed for 192.168.1.32: Name or service not known 2007/01/29 14:15:47 [9432] rsync on . from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (192.168.1.32) 2007/01/29 14:15:47 [9432] rsync: on remote machine: --specials: unknown option 2007/01/29 14:15:48 [9432] rsync error: requested action not supported (code 4) at clientserver.c(473) Same failure when you change the '-D' to '--devices', leaving '--specials'. Doing an rsync --help on the host, it doesn't seem to know what '--specials' is. I'm not sure what that does, or if it's a parameter that's supposed to be used by File::RsyncP. In any case, no permutation of '-D', '--devices', and '--specials' corrects this problem. Tim Massey ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
