Another important option would be to use "-u" since it would only transfer a file if it has changed (even if it is in the file list).

Otherwise, you could do something like:I thought it was on by default ?Have a file (ie filelist.txt) that contains the filename (with relative paths), one file per line.That is what I haversync -rRWz `cat filelist.txt` user@hostname::module The only limitation to this is if you have a large file list you may get a shell error.Yes that MIGHT be a problem for me tooIt has already been suggested in this list, as well as by myself in the rsync wishlist for a new option to specify a file that has a list of files to be transferred.Perhaps i need to have a look a the sources and see what it takes to put that option in (say --files) Thanx W
