the lines in the file specified to --files-from are actual file names and not
patterns so if you want all files starting with xyz then you must specify them
all.

Subject: rsync using wildcard (*) character
We are using rsync version 2.6.3 and do not intend to upgrade to the latest
version. I am using the following command:- rsync -arv --files-from=./myfile
/app/dd/gesb [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log/hhsb I want to mention the file list in
the "myfile" as follows:- ABCD/cdef/xyz* (Considering there are more than one
files existing with names beginning with xyz) Once I try to transfer files
using rsync using the command above, I get an error saying rsync: link_stat
"ABCD/cdef/xyz*" failed: No such file or directory (2) Shouldnt it read all the
files with names beginning with xyz and start transferring? Please help
