I am using rsync-2.4.3-1 between some VALinux (Redhat 6.1)
machines and seem to be having a problem with the --delete
option.
If I run rsync this way (as root):
rsync --rsh $SSHPATH --delete --force -arzvu naxos::cfengine
/usr/cfengine
delete works fine.
If I run rsync this way (as a normal user called backup)
rsync --rsh $SSHPATH --delete --force -arvzu /home
mikonos:/rtt/backups/naxos
The files on the host mikonos in the subdir's
/rtt/backups/naxos/{subdir}/{fname}
do not get deleted. And all of these files are owned by the user
'backup.'
What am I missing here?
thanks in advance!
Michelle
