Is it possible to make a complete image (or clone) of your hard drive (FAT
or NTFS) using rsync?
Is it possible to make incremental backups of the image (without having to
duplicate the source files)?
When restored to a new hard drive it should be bootable again and should be
an exact copy

No. rsync will copy the files and directory structure. It
doesn't copy the filesystem/partition. Further, rsync runs

The only way to go about this, is to make a local imagefile first and
transfer this later in Windows environment with rsync.

Hi,
We use rsync on NT (server and client) and we get errors on filenames with
a path that has in total more than 256 characters. This seems to be caused

having to manually shorten all this filenames?
Thx already!

data, usually on the first or second file.

Yo,
Just a word of the bleeding obvious on the following problem I reported
previously:
(if someone else did reply - it got lost in the few 100 spam Emails I
get a day)
In the /etc/rsync.conf - under the relevant module area - it was a
matter of setting the uid and gid to root.
