Can anyone shed any light on what I should expect from rsync when the --link-dest option is invoked when the destination is a remote rsync module? i.e. rsync --archive --delete --link-dest=../dst_1/ /src/ user@host::xyz/dst_0 I almost expected to get a whole lot of hard links in dst_1 to unchanged files in dst_0... if I skip rsyncd on the server side (i.e. make the target user@host:/path/to/xyz/dst_0) that is indeed what I get, so could anyone enlighten me as to why the same isn't possible when the destination is a remote module... Regards, Shaun
