Hello All, I have an off topic question about rsync and was wondering if i can get some kind person help with it. I have two servers with each server have three same directories on them /dir1/ /dir2/ /dir3/ . How would i achieve this by using rsync? I have tried rsync -avrt --delete server_ip:/dir1/ /dir2/ /dir3/ /dir1/ /dir2/ /dir3/ this does not do anything except give errors. Someone on IRC suggested i do a loop something like this, for i in "/dir1/ /dir2/ /dir3/"; do rsync -av $i root at server:${i};done but when i do it i do not get what i was expecting and also receive errors about not able to transfer files. I am not able to post the exact errors since it has been a while since i have attempted this and do not wish to screw stuff up right at the moment, but in general both say rsync cannot transfer files. So in general is there a way i can do multiple directories in one command or am i left with doing them each individual as in rsync -av server:/dir1/ /dir1/ and repeat for the rest of directories. or does someone know of a better way. my final goal is to have a cronjob do this. thanks steven
