--link-dest not working on remote server (running daemon)
Thanks for the reply. The link-dest is different. It is Feb 1 while the
source is Feb 2.
I tried setting path = /media/external/ for the daemon and using
rsync -a -v -i --delete --link-dest=backup-2016-02-01-0100
--password-file=/media/external/scripts/offsite_rsync.pass
/media/external/backup/backup-2016-02-02-0100 backup at 192.168.2.102:
:offsite/backup
So all three (link-dest, source, target) are directories but get the same
result. The directory backup-2016-02-02-0100 is created on the target
server and all files start to be transferred to it. Must be an...

--link-dest not working on remote server (running daemon)
...that latest daily backup from server 1 to
server 2 and use the --link-dest option on server 2 to link it to the
previous day.
*The Problem*
This is the command I'm troubleshooting right now
rsync -a -v -n -i --delete --link-dest=/backup-2016-02-01-0100
--password-file=/media/external/scripts/offsite_rsync.pass
/media/external/backup/backup-2016-02-02-0100 backup at 192.168.2.102::offsite
It seems to be sending all files as new files (i.e. not picking up the
link-dest option). I've tried using no slash at the beginning of link-dest,

--link-dest not working on remote server (running daemon)
According to this thread it at least used to work

I don't want to use SSH because I'm running this on low power ARM boards
which are already connected over VPN so no need for a second layer of
transport encryption. I'm not sure what you mean by "link-dest and your
target parameters misaligned". Both servers have
