I can't get the quotes passed to the rsync command line. So far, the following attempts to specify the path have not worked. tree: "/home/database backups" tree: /home/"database backups" tree: /home/database[ ]backups tree: /home/database[.]backups tree: /home/database backups tree: /home/database\ backups tree: /home/database\\ backups
I even tried tree: [/home/database backups] to no avail. As soon as the dirvish scripts see that space in the path the path gets truncated. If I modify the rsync command posted in summary and put quotes around the source path, all is well. -- Richard _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list [email protected] http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
