Keeping Files in Sync Between Servers.
The remote computer is "192.168.1.171" and has the account
"donkey". You want
to "keep in sync" the files under "/home/cu2000/Logs" on the
remote computer
with files on "/home/chirico/dev/MEDIA_Server" on the local computer.
$ rsync -Lae ssh [email protected]:/home/cu2000/Logs
/home/chirico/dev/MEDIA_Server
"rsync" is a convient command for keeping files in sync, and as
shown here will work
through ssh. The -L option tells rsync to treat symbolic links
like ordinary files.
