Thanks Wayne, Yes, I'm using the "exclude from" option pointing to a file with a list of things not to copy. The docs confused me. I guess it doesn't function as I expected.

You're probably referring to some exclusions specified in the rsyncd.conf file, but those aren't actually exclusions. They are totally ignored files (that causes files to be treated as if they don't exist on the server). If you don't want certain files to be deleted, you have to specify them as actual --exclude options on the command-line. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
