Well I believe I've followed all the instructions but I'm getting some weird stuff happening...
first rsync rsync://schoolserver tells me schoolserver doesnt resolve.... secondly still cannot get the command xs-refresh-xobuildlist --rebuildconfig to work.... without list it works, but not otherwise... and Ive pasted the version i have below... any ideas?
