rsync should work with that setup, I don't know why you are getting errors. I seriously recommend you take a close look at your permissions for /var/lib/mysql though - you have it world-writeable - a big no-no ACLs are working - the + at the end of the permissions in 'ls -l' proves that. I would be checking the individual files inside /var/lib/mysql/ and the directory /var/lib itself. Also, I don't know what (1) and (13) in the error logs means. It looks like rsync result codes, but those numbers for rsync make no sense at all in this context. Hopefully someone else reading this knows. Finally, SELinux can do odd things like this, but it's errors are easy to spot for what they are. Do you know what they look like, and do you have SELinux enabled? -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
