Wow! Dude! This is the most comprehensive, user-friendly, nice,
knowledgeable answer I have ever received. Thanks very much! That
answers everything.

The only solution rsync provides is to scan all directories, like this:
--include='*/' --include='*MY*/*' --include='*MY*' --exclude='*'
That creates

The best solution is to switch over to a more incremental protocol that
would allow us to avoid the pre-scan of an entire hier

This is easy to code up using a shell-script wrapper, and one such
wrapper has even been posted to the mailing list before.

What you should check is: (1) was the daemon actually started? Or did
it complain (in the log file) and die? (2) Is the daemon configured to

Matt,
Thanks very much. However, for several reasons, I cannot apply that
"trick" in my case. Apart from those reasons, there is no X server on
middle or target at all. Moreover, which password-prompting program
should I use? middle is an OpenBSD machine. And what should I put in
$DISPLAY?
Manuel,
The trouble in all three cases is that rsync expects to have the SSH
data stream to "middle" all to itself, but you need to slip a password
into this stream first so that the connection to "target" can be made.
Here's what I think would be easiest. If ssh's input is not a terminal,
but $

Hi Wayne,
What would be really nice, and I imagine quite easy from a coding
perspective would be to allow the user to apply a regex match on the full
pathname of the files being transferred.
Anyway, thanks for your confirmation - I have worked around this problem.
Cheers,

Hi
We currently use rsync for various jobs at our company. We are now
looking at using it to create an offsite synchonised copy of an Oracle 10g
RAC archive logs area. The source area is on Oracle OCFS filesystem.
The OCFS filesystem requires all reads/writes to be performed with the
