I wrote a script that uses rsync a bit and wanted to use it. While testing was fine, the real life was more complicated :)
Basically, my rsync command looks like that: rsync -v -azu -b --backup-dir /var/backup/files/ /var/profiles/files/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/ When I execute it where both machines have rsync 2.6.3, everything runs fine. When I execute it on a machine with rsync 2.6.6, and the remote machine has rsync 2.6.3, the command fails: rsync: on remote machine: --backup-dir-dels: unknown option This is weird to me, as I didn't change the options, and I don't use any "--backup-dir-dels" (which is not documented in the man by the way). How can I get around this problem? I can't really update rsync on all machines. -- Tomek -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
