However, there are several ways to create paths remotely with rsync now. For example: mkdir -p /var/tmp/backup.$$/please/create/this/path rsync -aivR /var/tmp/backup.$$/./please/create/this/path host:/dest/ rm -rf /var/tmp/backup.$$ rsync -aiv /src/ host:/dest/please/create/this/path/ But, admittedly, that would be a good deal easier like this (picking an option out of thin air): rsync -aiv --create-dest-dirs /src/ host:/dest/please/create/this/path/ Something like that does seem fairly useful to me. ..wayne..
