Hi Kenny,
We've been using this simple script for years and it works great. If I
had to guess, the error you're receiving is because you're missing the
second ':' between the host and module in the rsync statement.
#!/bin/bash
# Updates local mirrors.
#
# 2011-03-24 Initial version.
LOCKFILE="/var/run/mirror-rsync.pid"
# Update CentOS
if [ -f ${LOCKFILE} ]
then
exit 1
else
echo ${$} > ${LOCKFILE}
/usr/bin/rsync -aqzH --no-o --no-g --delay-updates --delete
msync-dvd.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd /var/www/html/centos/
/bin/rm -f ${LOCKFILE}
fi
