Thanks very much! This is really cool. However on my system I have really to use rsync -avx /path/to/src oub@localhost:/path/to/usb/dest Because otherwise the system does not recognise the passwd of u1002 BTW it seems that the system is using ssh anyway even I did not specify it in the rsync call, because it said something of accepting a ssh key in the first call. The only problem is that it did work in my setting: hosts.deny ALL:ALL And no hosts.allow entry. And I don't like to set hosts.allow ALL:ALL So I have to fiddle around a little, or do you know by change how to set hosts.allow and deny with minimal security risk.
