Desgraciadament no functiona per me: eamann@eamann-laptop:~$ rsync -av - -stats /home /lacie rsync: -: unknown option rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1108) (Fa mults anys vaig pasar una temporada a Barcelona i vaig apprendre una mica de catala.) I'm a newbie and perhaps I haven't given the proper address for the directories? Eamann Hola Jordi!

Desgraciadament no functiona per me:

eamann@eamann-laptop:~$ rsync -av – -stats /home /lacie
rsync: -: unknown option
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1108)

I’m a newbie and perhaps I haven’t given the proper address for the directories?
