Hello all . I think i'm missing something.. I've made a folder on the rsync server called symlinks. With in that folder is monday,tuesday,etc... Those folders contain symlinks to the backup files for that day. I want to transfer the files to a remote backup server. I must use the Folder where the symlinks are for security reasons. What would be the proper syntax to rsync the files that are on the other end of those symlinks. I've tried the man pages and google but i'm stuck. Thanks Edward
