Hi Les

I am trying to use rsync

1/ Are both machine to have rsync installed?

Yes, and the remote side needs ssh access.


2/ machine A#rsync -essh machineB:/ .
I try this command but what wrong I am

rsync -essh root@machineB:/ .
skipping directory /.
client: nothing to do: perhaps you need to specify
some filenames or the --recursive option?


Sorry - the command should really be more like:
rsync -essh -av root@machineB:/ .

If you specify a directory as the target, you must specify recursive also, but '-a' is a special option that includes many of the other options, including recursion. You probably also want --one-file-system or some --excludes to avoid taking /proc, though.
