>From the rsync man page: --rsync-path=PATH Use this to specify the path to the copy of rsync on the remote machine. Useful when it's not in your path. Note that this is the full path to the binary, not just the directory that the binary is in. Despite what's implied, I don't think that the PATH is grabbed from the normal shell config, at least not when running rsync using "-e ssh". Similar to "scp" when using ssh, the PATH is minimally defined by SSH itself. So in short, just add "--rsync-path=/absolute/path/to/rsync" (on the target system) to your command line and it should work. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
