Please refer to "man rsync" and consider what you are doing. Don't just blindly run commands other people send you ! I could be telling you to do something which will harm your system (even though of course I say I am not :) - -e says the parameter that follows is what will be executed on the remote machine after we have connected there to make rsync talk to us. You have "ssh -p 22" as the first filename which should be copied, along with the remote myserver.domain.net:/root/backups, to the destination of /var/tmp/pwrnctmpback/rsyncmanual This is very unlikely to be what you want. Try this (exactly, after you have understood why you are doing it): rsync -avz -e "/usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/backuppc-rsync" backu...@myserver.domain.net:/root/backups /var/tmp/pwrnctmpback/rsyncmanual Regards, Adam - -- Adam Goryachev Website Managers www.websitemanagers.com.au -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkl3/b0ACgkQGyoxogrTyiXfswCfUfjhSKkKWtaPI/SnC202T6QJ 2XUAn2tPyuQV79EoKupAyy/eFhXYUh1f =oYfq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
