Thanks for responding: Regarding the first issue.
I have a limited backup space in my server. On the other had I have disk space in some clients that is wasted. Thus I was hopping to backup one client to another client's disk, rather than to my main storage. Regarding the second issues. The client is a windows client. My understanding is that when you use rsyncd in windows. you can either exclude dirs or include dirs. not both. I only need to backup a couple of user accounts in that client. I was hoping to do it with two backup schedules, because of the limitation above. These accounts have different file exclusions. -Oz Martin Leben wrote: > Hi Oz, > > Read on... > > Oz Dror wrote: > >> I am sure that it was asked before, but I was not able to find >> satisfying answer on the net. >> >> 1.
