Hi, I'm trying to replicate a set of directories (and subdirs) to a server running rsync --daemon from another (client) machine using rsync (not using external transport) my syntax is: #!/bin/bash cd /usr/local/oracle rsync -avu ./* root@x.x.x.x::oracle/ where: /usr/local/oracle is the directory and subdirs I want to replicate to x.x.x.x (I run this script on the machine WITHOUT rsync --daemon running... ...It all appears to work, but I'm not satisfied - dates dont seem to change on files? (And, yes I know root is not the guy to do this, but root is the same on both boxes, hence its easier right now, and I am the admin, so I take the blame if it gets hosed up!! ;-) TIA, jamie
