Hello, I'm using cwrsync (with rsync 2.6.9) via ssh to back up stuff from various client machines to a server. Occasionally I would like to delete a particular file or folder from the server that still exists on the client (i.e., I'm no longer backing it up and I don't want it sitting on the server any more, but I do want to preserve it on the client box). Below is a snip of my log. I'm trying to delete C:\ba\myFile.ico from the server by using --delete-excluded and --exclude="/cygdrive/C/ba/myFile.ico". I can see the file being hidden due to the --exclude, but the file doesn't get deleted from the server (I was thinking that the --delete-excluded should do this). The man page for --delete-excluded says: "In addition to deleting the files on the receiving side that are not on the sending side, this tells rsync to also delete any files on the receiving side that are excluded" Any thoughts on where I might be going wrong here? Or is there some other method for doing this (deleting a file or folder from the server that still exists on the client)? Thanks! Ben Here's the log...
