Hello Wayne, everything works now. I don't know what happend but my script does what I expected. When I start my rsync-script and then start it again it takes <1minute to compare the source- and dest-dirs and to decide that nothing is to do. And when I look into the prot-file I created by piping the output into a file I can see that no files were copied. That's what I expected. I didn't know what happened in the past. Sorry for coming with a false-alarm. AugustQ -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
