rsync and --exclude
The --exclude options for rsync look similar to tar. If I wanted to
include a directory for exclusion, what would the proper command-line be
for tar and rsync to exclude a directory?
read the man page on ANCHORING INCLUDE/EXCLUDE PATTERNS, but
basically:
rsync -av --exclude /mnt / remote:/destination/
-dsr-
--
Every time you give up a right, the terrorists win.

rsync is working well, except I get chown errors on certain
files/folders, but the data does appear to be backing up fine.. I tried
using -o -p -g but didn't matter.
I'm running it as sudo.
So how do I successfully preserve all ownership permissions and receive no
errors during the backup?
The backups are appearing as owned by me on the destination system, which
happens to be samba-mounted (smb/cifs). Is this rsync or samba-mount
related? I'm using the rsync included with the default install of CentOS
5. yum updates are not possible on this system.
Thanks.
Scott
