Syntax

[Richard Ibbotson]

Hi

Wonder if anyone can help ?

My own internal domestic server was running fine with most things 
until I re-installed today.  Rsync config was done by someone else 
who knows what to do.  I don't.  Seems like a good time to learn :)

I'm trying to backup the contents of my home directory to another 
internal machine which is at 192.168.1.4 from my home directory which 
is at 192.168.1.2.   What are the correct syntax to use ?  I've read 
the man page and can't understand any of it.  So, I was hoping to get 
some help...

I've tried something like...

rsync -cazv 192.168.1.2/home/user *   192.168.1.4/home/user/backup

but this doesn't work even when I make a folder on the other machine 
which is 'backup'.

So, what to do next ?

Thanks
