Yo,
Just a word of the bleeding obvious on the following problem I reported
previously:
(if someone else did reply - it got lost in the few 100 spam Emails I
get a day)
In the /etc/rsync.conf - under the relevant module area - it was a
matter of setting the uid and gid to root.
uid = root
As root, I am trying to mirror a Redhat 7.3 Linux user area
onto another Redhat 7.3 Linux box using rsync. This is using
the following type of command:
rsync -a -v --stats --safe-links
However, rsync cannot mirror most of the user area because
of the default permissions for the user areas.
