Wayne, Here's another test. Information now looks like: source = /Applications (permissions: owner=root, group=admin, 775) target = /Volumes/backups/current/leopard (permissions: owner=root, group=admin, 775) backup-dir = /Volumes/backups/archives/leopard/week/mon (permissions: owner=root, group=admin, 777) I created a file (temp) in the source, ran rsync (command below), which backed it up. Then I removed it, and ran rsync again, and get the error. I'm running rsync as root (sudo -s to get a root shell) each time. It looks to me like it's not creating the folder hierarchy inside the backup-dir location. /usr/bin/rsync -vv -a --stats --eahfs --backup --backup-dir=/Volumes/backups/current/leopard/../../archives/leopard/week/mon --delete -z /Applications /Volumes/backups/current/leopard building file list ... expand file_list to 4000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move done expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 4000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move deleting in Applications backup_dir is /Volumes/backups/current/leopard/../../archives/leopard/week/mon stat "/Volumes/backups/current/leopard/../../archives/leopard/week/mon/Applications/temp" failed: No such file or directory keep_backup Applications/temp -> /Volumes/backups/current/leopard/../../archives/leopard/week/mon/Applications/temp deleting Applications/temp The same thing happens when I use the command: /usr/bin/rsync -vv -a --stats --eahfs --backup --backup-dir=../../archives/leopard/week/mon --delete -z /Applications /Volumes/backups/current/leopard building file list ... expand file_list to 4000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move done expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 4000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move deleting in Applications backup_dir is ../../archives/leopard/week/mon stat "/Volumes/backups/current/leopard/../../archives/leopard/week/mon/Applications/temp" failed: No such file or directory keep_backup Applications/temp -> ../../archives/leopard/week/mon/Applications/temp deleting Applications/temp Another run, with yet another way (in my eyes) to specify the backup-dir: /usr/bin/rsync -vv -a --stats --eahfs --backup --backup-dir=/Volumes/backups/archives/leopard/week/mon --delete -z /Applications /Volumes /backups/current/leopard building file list ... expand file_list to 4000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move done expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 4000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 8000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 16000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 32000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 64000 bytes, did move expand file_list to 128000 bytes, did move deleting in Applications backup_dir is /Volumes/backups/archives/leopard/week/mon stat "/Volumes/backups/archives/leopard/week/mon/Applications/temp" failed: No such file or directory keep_backup Applications/temp -> /Volumes/backups/archives/leopard/week/mon/Applications/temp deleting Applications/temp All three eventually return the following results when rsync is finished: total: matches=0 tag_hits=0 false_alarms=0 data=73901 Number of files: 18411 Number of files transferred: 7 Total file size: 210444482 bytes Total transferred file size: 12296 bytes Literal data: 73901 bytes Matched data: 0 bytes File list size: 857230 Total bytes written: 888825 Total bytes read: 160 wrote 888825 bytes read 160 bytes 45588.97 bytes/sec total size is 210444482 speedup is 236.72 rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(639) backup: rsync complete from leopard at Mon May 3 14:25:02 EDT 2004, status=23 I'm assuming that the three sets of "expand file_list" is the source, the target, and the backup-dir, correct? I know I'm doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what it is. I thought maybe I didn't understand the way to specify the backup-dir, but I've tried three ways, and it doesn't seem to care.
