Unfortunately some rsync servers (like ftp.nl.d.o) choke on --no-motd (refuses to sync anything), so it cannot be used as a generic option. For ftp.nl.d.o I added '-q' to --rsync-options to suppress the MOTD. Cheers, FJP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
