I have mounted a networked usb drive to /mnt/network using the command: mount -t cifs -o user=paul //lkg7f.homenet.com/disc2 /mnt/network I then use: rsync -Cav --delete --progress --exclude '*tmp*' --exclude '*Trash*' /usr /mnt/network
All files copy with no errors but symlinks always fail with the message: symlink "/mnt/network/usr/lib/libgstinterfaces-0.8.so.0" -> "libgstinterfaces-0.8.so.0.1.0" failed: Operation not supported I am wondering if this is a permissions problem. My network usb server will not let me have a user called root so I have set user paul with the 'can do anything' previlege. The mount and rsync commands are using user root Can anybody help please.
