Hello,
My /var/www and /tmp are in different filesystem.
# df
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda3 37980892 3907128 34073764 11% /
/dev/hda1 91556 4988 86568 6% /boot
shmi:/var/www 37980892 1694152 36286740 5% /var/www
If I use "-T /tmp", the error also occurres. Seems rsync will unlink
the
original file before copy the new one over. Idea?
$ rsync -a -T /tmp home::www/pahudtestfile ./
unlink pahudtestfile: Permission denied
copy /tmp/.pahudtestfile.v4pXKW -> pahudtestfile : Permission denied
$ rsync --version
