Correct. According to OLDNEWS, --only-write-batch was added in rsync 2.6.5. > I tried updating to the > latest RSync version (2.6.9) on this machine but after installing (./ > configure, make, make install) it has clearly not replaced the > previous version of Rsync.

The source package's "make install" puts the executable at /usr/local/bin/rsync by default; it won't replace any rsync executables you might have elsewhere on the machine. If the wrong version of rsync is being invoked, try using the full path /usr/local/bin/rsync .
