Hi,
My backup server (B) has a /backup/home and I'd like to restore /backup/home/userX to /home/userX in my server A
I am trying to do with in the server where I want to restore.
rsync -e ssh -avzp -R --exclude "*.journal" backup_server:/backup/home/userX/ /home/userX
But it is creating a /home/userX/backup/home/userX
What am I doing wrong?
Trailing slashes & `-R`... Rather than repeat what smarter folk wrote better than I, type man rsync, then `/trailing` and give it a look. Then catch the relative part for -R.
