Hello list,

Using rsync 2.5.6 on Solaris 7/8 boxes:

I was happily running this script via crontab:

$ more webrsync.ksh
#!/bin/ksh
# @(#)  File synchronization across hosts using rsync

#Description :
#
#  Created   : 4 September 2003
#  Author    : Loris Serena

set -x

LPATH=/usr/local/bin

for i in 1 3 4 5 6 7 8
do
    ${LPATH}/rsync -azvv -e ${LPATH}/ssh --stats 
--include-from=/opt/pictures/rsync-include /usr/local/apache/htdocs/ 
ppukweb${i}:/usr/local/ap
ache/htdocs/ > /opt/pictures/webrsynclogs/ppukweb${i}.`date 
+%m.%d.%H.%M` 2>&1

done
$

with the following /opt/pictures/rsync-include file:

$ more rsync-include
+ /images/
+ /newimages/
+ /help/
+ /popup/
+ /email/
+ /pp_ntl/
+ /ppbanners/
- /*
$

Now, I have added a new directory to sync to the rsync-include, which 
now looks like this:

$ more rsync-include
+ /images/
+ /newimages/
+ /help/
+ /popup/
+ /email/
+ /pp_ntl/
+ /ppbanners/
+ /iframe/
- /*
$

Now, the new directory doesn't get synched:

If a look at the logfile, here is what I get:

$ grep iframe ppukweb1.09.18.13.33
excluding directory iframe because of pattern /*

Any idea about what I'm doing wrong?

Loris
