Hello,
I've started working with rsync and I'm close to getting things the
way I want it, but I need a bit of help from an expert to finish the
project.
I'm rsyncing from a directory on a server to a usb mass-storage device
attached to a different computer. I'm running an rsync daemon on the
server and I'm able to successfully synchronize the contents of a
directory on the server to a directory on the usb device.
What I want: when I delete a file or directory on either place it will
remove it from the other.
What it does now: If I delete a directory or file from the server it
removes it from the USB device (ya!) but if I remove a file/directory
from the USB device and perform an rsync it replaces the deleted
file/directory.
Here is the rsync command I'm using:
rsync --delete --delete-excluded --recursive -uv
