rsync -aWuq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/Seagate
rsync: mkdir "/media/bmike1/Seagate" failed: Permission denied (13)
Mike, this suggests that whatever user is login in to the remote box doesn't 
have the rights to 'mkdir /media/bmike1/Seagate' 


Login to that box with that user and run that mkdir.
If it fails (and most likely will), you know what the problem is.
Being that the problem, there is a wide array of options to overcome it.

I was trying to backup my system for the first time and rsync is throwing
a permission denied error up. Did something change with rsync or is this a
user error? How do I fix it?

Re: rsync permission denied

This is a pretty vague question...
The severity of the error you have may range from irrelevant to 
catastrophic, and it is impossible to assess without the context of what you 
are doing. 


What user is login to the remote computer?
Does that user have rights to that filesystem?
What user is in the local box?
What directories are you rsync(ing). 

Whatever the answer is, I'll bet you dollars to donuts that you have a 'user 
error'...   ;-)

What is the exact text of the error? What are the existing permissions of
what you're trying to backup?

Thanks,
