-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am trying to use rsync to backup a filesystem to another computer on a local network, but when I use rsync -arx / some.host:backup rsync still tries to copy everything from all mounted filesystems. Is there a bug, or is there a better way to do what I want than this? Thanks. - -- Clarke's Corollary: Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

Perhaps it is your OS or an old version of rsync? -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.
