I know this behaviour for other file types: It happens if these files are either hold open (Outlook .pst files come to mind), or even modified while rsync is in progress. Thus, can you really rule out that noone else is accessing this file while rsync is taking place? My experience with Access is rather old (Access 1.1 and 2.0, some 15 years ago), but for these ancient versions, every time someone accesses this database, he opens the .mdb file himself in a shared manner. Thus, even if nothing is running on the server, there might be some remote user that is still accessing the DB. Regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
