I ran the same as before but changed the path to the one you suggested: =============================== 'rsync -a -l -v --exclude "./System Volume Information" -e "ssh -c blowfish -l root" /mnt/User_WinXP/ 10.10.10.25:/home/httpd/backup' sending incremental file list rsync: opendir "/mnt/User_WinXP/System Volume Information" failed: Permission denied (13) [snip ...] rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1042) [sender=3.0.7] =============================== The System Volume is shown as 0700 (mounted with default permissions) and is owned by root when viewed from Gentoo. -- Regards, Mick
