sh should not expand this wildcard unless you have a file called literally [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/derek/foo.pub starting from the current directory. However I think some shells (zsh?) will try to expand wildcards like this to '' if they don't match. Perhaps the OS X shell does this. So you should put the argument containing the wildcard in single quotes. -- Martin -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
