The exclusion pattern is relative to the src/dest locations. --exclude='/usr/lib/sympa/spool/arc/*' (Need the quotes to protect the * if on the command line) would only match the files /usr/lib/sympa/spool/usr/lib/sympa/spool/arc/* which isn't what you want. try this instead rsync -avzP -e ssh --delete --exclude=/arc/ /usr/lib/sympa/spool \ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/backup/lists/sympa/usr/lib/sympa/spool > the web archives with many files), and rsyncing it spearately, but it > seems, the --exclude option is only used at transferring, and not used > when considering the files. > > Please write me if you have fixed these bugs, and if you can, send me a > patch.
