rsync help
I have set my rysnc path like so...
[WEB]
path=/home/
read only = false
uid=root
gid=root
this is the rysnc.conf file
and i was wondering i know i put my back up script into a shell but where do i set it to make rysnc find it?
what i mean look at this example im look at...
#!/bin/sh
# This script does personal backups to a rsync backup server. You will end up
# with a 7 day rotating incremental backup. The incrementals will go
# into subdirectories named after the day of the week, and the current
# full backup goes into a directory called "current"
# tridge@linuxcare.com
# directory to backup
BDIR=/home/$USER
# excludes file - this contains a wildcard pattern per line of files to exclude
EXCLUDES=$HOME/cron/excludes
# the name of the backup machine
BSERVER=owl
# your password on the backup server
export RSYNC_PASSWORD=XXXXXX
########################################################################
BACKUPDIR=`date +%A`
OPTS="--force --ignore-errors --delete-excluded --exclude-from=$EXCLUDES
--delete --backup --backup-dir=/$BACKUPDIR -a"
export PATH=$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
# the following line clears the last weeks incremental directory
[ -d $HOME/emptydir ] || mkdir $HOME/emptydir
rsync --delete -a $HOME/emptydir/ $BSERVER::$USER/$BACKUPDIR/
rmdir $HOME/emptydir
# now the actual transfer
rsync $OPTS $BDIR $BSERVER::$USER/current
where does it say that it is going to use rsync? did they forget to put that in there or does it go into teh rsync.conf file.????
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
