Hi,

 When i try to run rsync command from command linne it is working
fine.Belowis the command

/usr/bin/rsync --compress \
               --verbose \
               --rsh=ssh \
               --times \
               --owner \
               --group \
               --ignore-times \
               --links \
               --perms \
               --recursive \
               --size-only \
               --delete \
               --force \
               --numeric-ids \
               --stats \
               /etc  \
               root@target_machine:/home/backup/thismachine/

#! /bin/bash

 /usr/bin/rsync --compress \
               --verbose \
               --rsh=ssh \
               --times \
               --owner \
               --group \
               --ignore-times \
               --links \
               --perms \
               --recursive \
               --size-only \
               --delete \
               --force \
               --numeric-ids \
               --stats \
               /etc  \
               root@target_machine:/home/backup/thismachine/


I am getting the following error

ssh: connect to host x.x.x.x port 22: No route to host
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420)

this is related to ssh i believe.But when i try to use from the command
prompt it is working without any problem through ssh

Please some one help me how to fix this error in shell script.Because i want
to schedule this from cron

Thanks for your time

Perhaps you have some host-specific options in ~/.ssh/config that
aren''t
picked up when running from cron?

Or there''s some hidden character after one of the backslashes, or
something like that... Try putting it all on one line in the script.
