Hello List. I am using rsync to pull html files from a shared drive to 2 web server boxes to keep the files synchronized.
However, I have a few files I do not want rsync to copy over because they contain information specific (IP address) to the box hosting them. Rsync seems to intermittently ignore the exclude statement and copies them from time to time. Is there a way to absolutely prevent rsync from copying a specific file in a directory where every file but that one is to be copied? My rsync statement complete with exclude looks like this: rsync -avz --delete --update --stats --exclude=/library/webserver/documents/domains/mydomain/file_to_exclude.html -e ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/Web_Files/Domains/source_of_files/ /library/webserver/documents/domains/destination_dir_of_files/ -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/rsync-fails-to-exclude...-sometimes--tp16146668p16146668.html Sent from the Samba - rsync mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
