Hi, 
I am still having a problem with excluding ../tmp directory but copy over
../tmp/content.html file and ../tmp/index.html.

I can't --exclude "*" --include "tmp/" --include "tmp/content.html".  I
simply cannot exclude "*" for I have 10000 directories to be updated and I
cannot include them  with --include option.


The syntax below doesn't give me the result I want.
/usr/local/bin/rsync --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync --rsh 
 "/usr/bin/rsh" -av --backup --suffix=_prom+
--include-from=/export/app/infilelist
--exclude-from=/export/app/outfilelist/

outfilelist
/tmp

infilelist
content.html
index.html

Any advise?
Thanks,
Magda
