I've tried various passwords, but I still can't get it to backup, so help please? rsync either uses ssh or its own protocol to connect across networks. Almost everyone uses ssh. Using double colons boudiccas@192.168.1.106::home/back-emacs indicates that you want the rsync protocol, which required rsync to be running in daemon mode on the other side. Use one colon there, which indicates SSH, and use boudicca's login password on the 192.168.1.106 box. If ssh boudiccas@192.168.1.106 doesn't work, debug that first. -dsr- when sorting mine out I found it handy to enable telnet while setting up ssh so I could go back and fix it when I invariably broke it. mick -- Key ID4BFEBB31
