Some OSes don't allow a directory to be set to a time in the past. If that is the case, rsync is trying to set the time but failing (and it ignores the error since it is not important to the duplication efforts). I personally think that setting the timestamps on the directories is not a very necessary thing to do by default, so a while back I created a patch that would make it optional. I didn't get any positive feedback at the time, though, so I dropped it for now. You can find the patch here: http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/rsync/patches/dir-times.diff That is based on the CVS source. If you want to try it out, one way is to snag a nightly tar file from the rsync web site and apply the patch (it's included in the tar file). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
