Ah, but I don't think I can sync two directories on the same machine. That's what I'm really trying to do.
I used to use a Windows XCopy .bat file .to do it on my old server. It would sync my Music Folder to a second drive within the same machine. I'd just click on it after I had made any changes and it worked like a dream. I could even use it to make a second copy of the Music Folder on a blank drive. Thanks for you help. Looks like I'll just have to do it over the network. I sync'd one back up already. That was fairly quick. I'm doing a second backup on a black drive and it says that I may not live long enough to see it complete :-) Howard Greg Erskine wrote: > https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-rsync-to-sync-local-and-remote-directories-on-a-vps > > Type rsync by itself to get full help. > > I'd use the dry-run option to test. Can I go home now? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Howard Passman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16674 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107352 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
