Hi, Wayne,



Thanks for your suggestion.



Your solution is good but not fit my case.   If there are a lot of files or
folders under  l1, rsync -avR source/./l1/l2/l3/abc.txt dest::Worksheets/ will
check all the files and folders under l1.



Actually, I only care about abc.txt.





Thanks,





Steven.

Do this instead:



rsync -avR source/./l1/l2/l3/abc.txt dest::Worksheets/



The use -f -R (--relative) along with the /./ path element to signal how much of
the source path goes into the copy will make rsync create all the needed dirs on
the destination.
