In this case you must use 2 colons after the hostname and the path may not match the filesystem exactly. You can test this with 'rsync site::' and if you get back a list of exported modules, explore them with 'rsync site::module/path/'. If you omit the local target you will just get a listing back from the remote. --- Les Mikesell les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
