Did you add --prune-empty-directorys to the command line? This filter setup along with --prune-empty-directories will copy only the files in the named directores, which is my understanding of what you want. >After a day of trail and error and internet searching I now have this >that is really close. Looks overly complex to me. Taking your example layout and using this filter set + das/htdocs/docs/* + em/htdocs/docs/* + enf/htdocs/docs/* + internal/htdocs/docs/* + itb/htdocs/docs/* + medtox/htdocs/docs/* + pml/htdocs/docs/* + psb/htdocs/docs/* + reg/htdocs/docs/* + whs/htdocs/docs/* + */ - * and this command line rsync --dry-run --prune-empty-dirs --itemize-changes -a -F export\ to\ I get .d..t...... ./ cd+++++++++ home/ cd+++++++++ home/das/ cd+++++++++ home/das/htdocs/ cd+++++++++ home/das/htdocs/docs/ >f+++++++++ home/das/htdocs/docs/SHLNotes.txt cd+++++++++ home/em/ cd+++++++++ home/em/htdocs/ cd+++++++++ home/em/htdocs/docs/ >f+++++++++ home/em/htdocs/docs/SHLNotes.txt Which I think is what you want. Every subdirectory contains a file.
