As I said it is already working well for me. The commands I run are rsync -avi --delete --stats /home/my_user_name/Pictures/ [email protected]:/home/my_user_name/Pictures rsync -avi --delete --stats /home/my_user_name/.shotwell/ [email protected]:/home/my_user_name/.shotwell Where obviously you have to put the correct user name and replace eeyore with the name of machine you are writing to. To avoid having to enter passwords every time then setup ssh keys. While testing the commands you can include -n and it will tell you what it would do, but without actually doing it. In fact I have a script which I run that first runs the commands with -n so I can check it looks ok, then asks for confirmation to proceed to run the commands without -n.
