I usually set up an rsync module on the remote system allowing
writes, and restricting access to the IP address of the machine
initiating the backups. Say this is backups_upd. Then I'll do
something like:
cd /
for dir in dir*; do
rsync --delete -axr $dir destmachine::backups_upd/$dir
done
The section of the rsyncd.conf file might look like this:
[backups_upd]
list = no
uid = root
gid = root
read only = false
use chroot = false
path = /backups
comment = /backups
hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/16
hosts deny = *

programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of
