As you may recall from the last time I answered you, please send the same thing, but use 3 "v"s instead of only one. rsync -vvvcrlpogtz . [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/rsync/ Since you don't know which transport you are using, we can read the output from the above command to find out. You are not getting to a remote rsync process, either because the transport (rsh/remsh or ssh) is not getting there (only a failed authentication is possible, from the fact that you're getting a password prompt), or because once it's there, it's not finding the remote rsync binary(or not allowed to execute it). Once we know you're getting a shell open to [EMAIL PROTECTED], we then do (rsh || ssh) (depending on what rsync is using in your case) -l rsync domain.ltd which rsync which will probably give a "not found". find where it is on that system, and try your command again with --rsync-path=/wherever/you/have/rsync/on/domain.ltd/rsync .
Repeating the question in exactly the same way, yet again, will not give the information needed to solve your problem.
