I would recommend that you consult the client manual, which includes a reference chapter for client options.
If, after reading the information on REPLACE you still don't understand it, let me know what is not clear.

Ladies, Gentlemen, following up to my (maybe confused) question yesterday, I think my question boils down to this: How does 'restore ... replace=no' work? That is, what does it take for a file to not be replaced? Is name and location already sufficient? Or does the client check for creation/modification date, size, or something like md5-hash? tia for any info on that, kind regards, tobi... :) -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dipl.-Ing.
