Problem using rsync for backing up on to a NAS

[Thomas Ebert]

Hi!

After searching again I tried the option -W because it is suggested for 
backups over LAN.

But again I get following error message:

usr/share/terminfo/l/
deleting usr/share/terminfo/l/LFT-PC850
rsync: stat 
"/home/thomas/DiskStation/Thomas/backup/molungus-root/2008-08-25/usr/share/terminfo/L/LFT-PC850" 
failed: No such file or directory (2)
usr/share/terminfo/l/lft => usr/share/terminfo/l/lft-pc850
rsync: link

Kind regards
