    rsync shooting blanks -- need help!

    After three days and consulting several people I lucked into discovering that it was faulty syntax. (I'm trying to speak a language I don't understand!) The little slashes at the very end make all the difference. A slash at the end of the source path says "sync everything that is within this...

    rsync-ing web pages

    After three days and consulting several people I lucked into discovering that it was faulty syntax. (I'm trying to speak a language I don't understand!) The little slashes at the very end make all the difference. A slash at the end of the source path says "sync everything in this folder,"...

    rsync shooting blanks -- need help!

    Every time I rsync my web pages from my ibook (OSX 10.2.6) to my college's web server (Linux), it botches the results. Whether I sync files already sftp'd to the server, or start from scratch and rsync them afresh onto the server--I end up with .html files with appropriate names but no...

    rsync-ing web pages

    Okay . . . I've actually installed rsync using fink commander (which should help!). And now, from Rsyncx, I've tried again and gotten: time rsync -a -e ssh "/Users/davidc/sites/itsc/" "username@server.school.edu:/public_html/" --showtogo; exit rsync: --showtogo: unknown option rsync error...

    rsync-ing web pages

    I'm an OS X user who'd like to have a handy way to sync my web pages. I'm a total unix newbie, but I've caught onto the possibility of using rsync and/or rsyncx to do this. Currently, I can use command-line sftp to post my stuff, but it seems I can only do one file at a time (right?). Can...
