User david needs to copy files from ~/Documents/Recipes to a public directory under the home directory of another user on machine 'borg'. Some new subdirectories have been created by david. The command used is rsync -e "/usr/bin/ssh" -auvz /home/david/Documents/Recipes/ david@borg:/home/anne/Public/Recipes Error messages are of the types: rsync: failed to set times on "/home/anne/Public/Recipes/.": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: mkstemp "/home/anne/Public/Recipes/.blankrecipe.doc.bo5Bs2" failed: Permission denied (13) The first one refers to a directory. If I look at the directory on borg it is set to allow all of group 'users' to add, change and delete. If I look at it through samba on the box connecting by ssh, 'users' can only read. I don't understand what the 'mkstemp' messages are about. Is this writing a temporary file during the transfer? If so, I presume that curing the first one will also cure this one. All help gratefully received Anne
