Previously rsync was skipping the symlinks because you didn't specify --links, so --safe-links had no effect. If you want it to transfer symlinks as files, use -L (--copy-links). If you want it to duplicate "safe" symlinks and copy "unsafe" links as files, specify --links with --safe-links. If you want it to skip them, leave the various symlink options off (and tolerate the skipping messages). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
