How so?
Well, there's a lot of them, for one; scattered about the drive in
various places, for two.
You just have to put the appropriate number of ../ in front.
"symlinks -c" will even do this for you.
symlinks -c? I don't have a command named symlinks nor did I see one
on a quick tour of /usr/ports/ .. oh, wait, I see it in sysutils, I'll
take a look at that.
This is a local rsync, so there's no receiving daemon.
I meant that you could set up and use a receiving daemon if you wish
to
take advantage of the "munge symlinks" feature.
Ah... well, yeah, I hadn't thought of that... I guess that's a
possibility. though I've always had permission issue doing that in the
past... Still, might be worth looking into/
Maybe I don't need the -H option after all...
The -l option (which is part of -a) governs symlinks, not -H.
Ah, right, I was thinking they were hard links, but of course not.
