I would like to specify an entry in /etc/rsyncd.conf such that it operates on a --one-file-system basis always. The path will point to a filesystem mount point, but there is another filesystem that is mounted in a subdirectory. I want to back up only those files in the pointed to filesystem, and not the one mounted within (in that run, anyway). I do not see such an option in man rsyncd.conf. Is there an undocumented one available? -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | Phil Howard - KA9WGN | Dallas | http://linuxhomepage.com/ | | phil-nospam@ipal.net | Texas, USA | http://ka9wgn.ham.org/ | -----------------------------------------------------------------

any way to get --one-file-system in rsyncd.conf?

There are some caveats - see the man page. Craig
