I use the -u option (update), so it only copies new stuff, or stuff that's been modified since last sync, but nothing that's old/unmodified. Does this not do what you want? My back-up is just rsync -rvua /home/me /media/externalusbhdd ./tony -- http://www.tonybaldwin.me all tony, all the time! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
