Not sure how that would help Nathan. Doesn't that just list out the
directory? I know what's gone across and what hasn't. The problem is
to defeat the 'permission denied (13)' complaint.<br>

morning all,<br>
Is anyone able to tell me what I've done wrong this time?!<br>
<br>
I use grsync to backup the entire contents of my /home/me/
directory on my main desktop PC to a similar one called
/home/me/Backups on my second desktop. I do this, over the
domestic wired ethernet, by mounting the remote Backups
directory under /mnt/.. and then using grsync to copy the
stuff over.<br>
<br>
This used to work but now I am not sure. There are, of
course, thousands of files and they whip up quite quickly
but literally dozens of them appear in red and one of the
ones I have been able to read says:<br>
<br>
rsync:recv_generator:mkdir "directory-details" failed.
Permission denied(13)<br>
<br>
I have changed the permissions on the remote machine with<br>
<br>
chown -R root:root /home/Backups<br>
<br>
and everything in it went to root. So I then logged on to
the second machine as root (it's PCLinuxOS) and let it run
like that. And of course the grsync from my main machine
runs under sudo because it is Ubuntu.<br>
<br>
I think new files are being delivered to the remote machine,
but it does not look like any new directories are being
created or their contents.<br>
<br>
All ideas would be very welcome at this time (consultant
speak!).<br>
<br>
