Dear list, I just started to play with rsync. It seems to provide an option to sync with an ssh enabled file server (I think win). I have no root rights ono the server, and I need to archive/sync with my win - based pc. The client runs just fine, but the transfer fails: Password: rsync: mkdir "/home/myuserfolder/backup" failed: No such file or directory (2) rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(529) [receiver=2.6.9] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(453) [sender2.6.9] Do I need to do something on the server? It seems that some people put some script on the server, but I am not sure whether that is the way to go when I have no root privileges. Thanks heaps in advance. Martin
