I wanted to follow-up with two minor corrections to my post ... 1) To correctly copy the notes using rsync, you need the -E (-- extended-attributes) flag, something like:
rsync -avubE SRCDIR/ lo...@dst-machine:MIRRORDIR/ 2) The ellipses "lo..." were not intended. The listserv has detected "login AT dst-machine:MIRRORDIR/", and decided to protect login's identity. I tested this on 10.5.8, and it works so far. I haven't noticed any limits as described in this thread http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00947.html Hope this helps, - Stu On Oct 19, 2009, at 4:25 PM, Stuart Andrews wrote: > > I use rsync to mirror directory structures between machines.
