Re: rsync error... can i ask for help here??

Again, you need to read more carefully. You missed the point of this exercise:

You were asked: "what does ssh  test@192.168.125.133 pwd   return?"

But you ran: "ssh  test@192.168.125.133"

The difference is subtle but it's there.

Hi Roger,

what does ssh  test@192.168.125.133 pwd   return?

Yeah, I had started to question if basic ssh was the issue!

ssh test@192.168.125.133
test@192.168.125.133's password:
Activate the web console with: systemctl enable --now cockpit.socket

Last failed login: Fri Apr 17 11:30:42 EDT 2020 from 192.168.125.1 on ssh:notty
There were 2 failed login attempts since the last successful login.
Last login: Fri Apr 17 08:12:35 2020 from 192.168.125.1

works as it's supposed to .

baby steps!
