I am running rsync -avz from [A], to pull a directory from [B]. I want to _exclude_ several directories on [B] from being pulled across.
Since these directories have short names, I hope that I can either specify them inline rsyncd.conf on [B]; or, inline to the CLI on [A]. I am confused with man rsyncd.conf, where the manpage states: "it only applies on the daemon" I have tried specifying this several ways, in the CLI on [A]: -f - /bragi/ \ -f - /brono/ \ -f - /jord/ \ -f - /loki/ \ -f - /odin/ \ _both_ before and _after_ specifying source and destination. I know that the rest of the syntax I am using is correct, because _without_ those filters, it brings everything across ;< What am I missing? -- Best Regards, helices - Dare to fix things before they break . . . - Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we think we know.
