Hi,
Have one workstation 192.168.1.2
Have one gateway for access to internet 192.168.1.1
Connection between them by crossover cable.
Only this 2 boxes.
Want to copy the gateway /home/ directory to the workstation on
/mnt/backup/.
Both sides of copy is on ext3.
Rsync is installed on both boxes
There are many different ways to accomplish this. Are you wanting to
use rsync in daemon mode, or rsync over an ssh transport?
I hate to deliver the stock answer, but it sounds like you need to RTFM
a bit and then try us back if you still can't get it to work.

named backup which can log in interactively, you could do something
like the following:
rsync -av --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/path/to/stuff
Note that many *nix distributions / ssh installations (quite properly)
do
Hi Jim,
Now it is working.
I had all correct but... --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh...no mention in my docs of this.
I just added this and there she goes.
Thanks
Johan
