Well, it couldn't hurt, but -a (archive) is /supposed/ to include -r (recursive), at least according to the manpage I have here. It's actually supposed to include a whole string of parameters: """"" -a, --archive archive mode; equals -rlptgoD (no -H,-A,-X) """"" That's --recursive --(sym)links --perms --(m)times --group --owner and --devices/--specials. (-HAX are --hard-links --acls --xattrs, which don't apply here, but might be useful on some systems. Hard-links doesn't apply because they don't cross filesystems.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
