Naturally, the link-dest path must lie on the *destination side*. I am not sure about the correct syntax on how to do this via rsync protocol, but I am quite sure it must be possible. The idea is to lower traffic by actually sending increments, but still always have a full copy in every path. I usually do this, by being master of the destination file system: I PULL date from source to dest, so dest is always from the command side.
