As far as I see, no - you are thinking of tab or sth.? Unfortunately, the issue arose another time: I'm backing up a system via ssh -> sudo rsync ... again, I specified '--filter=:- /nobackup.txt' in the config.pl. The command with $argList+ looks like this: /usr/bin/ssh -C -q -x -l user host.domain.com /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --checksum-seed=32761 --one-file-system --filter=:-\\\ /nobackup.txt . /usr/local/ In the .authorized_keys of user on host.domain.com, I wrote command="sudo $SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND" ... which works fine without --filter. But the error is this: Fatal error (bad version): invalid modifier sequence at '\' in filter rule: :-\ So I removed the "+" from $argList, now the command looks like this: /usr/bin/ssh -C -q -x -l user host.domain.com /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --checksum-seed=32761 --one-file-system --filter=:-\ /nobackup.txt . /usr/local/ ... and the error is: Fatal error (bad version): unexpected end of filter rule: :- And no matter what I tried manually as command (arbitrary numbers of backslashes, single and double quotes around the argument of --filter), I had no success. Another idea how I could solve this? It's all about this **** space in the --filter argument ... Thanks, Thomas
