"Variable syntax" is a csh error message telling you that the way you're trying to use shell variables is wrong somehow. > I tried > rsync -vv testfile mydestmachine:/export/opt/geneva/temp/testfile > > even for this command i get the same error. You typed this at the commandline, exactly as shown, and it gave you this error? That's strange, as no variables are involved here. 'rsync' doesn't happen to be an alias, does it?
