What I see above is that you're piping the output from rsync into find, which I cannot see being useful... I would suggest first doing: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'find server*/adhoc/remotedir* -mtime -1 -print > /tmp/rsync-list' and then /usr/local/bin/rsync -avz --delete --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync --files-from=:/tmp/rsync-list [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/remoteuser /local/dir/ although I hope you don't mind having any other files in /local/dir/ deleted (due to the --delete).
