Still failing. How do I tell rsync NOT to copy the files in the root C:\ ? (remember I used mount -t smbfs to mount the 2000Server C drive to /mnt) I don't want to copy these files as rsync pukes on some of them: CONFIG.SYS NTDETECT.COM boot.ini AUTOEXEC.BAT MSDOS.SYS arcldr.exe ntldr COMLOG.txt IO.SYS arcsetup.exe pagefile.sys I tried this command telling it to NOT copy those files using "/*.*" : steelhead:~# rsync -av --ignore-errors --force --exclude "/*.*" /mnt/ /root/nt But I get this error when it hits the ntldr file so it is trying to copy those files: WINNT/wmsetup.log WUTemp/ ntldr wrote 2014205144 bytes read 317412 bytes 824104.13 bytes/sec total size is 2014715194 speedup is 1.00 rsync error: partial transfer (code 23) at main.c(578) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
