    HI all!

    I have a bit of a funny problem:
    I have a SuSE 9.0 box that I use to host a few websites / domains - the
    machine is also setup as a NFS server.
    I have another SuSE 9.0 box that is just a redundant machine with a copy
    of the webserver htdocs, just in case the main server dies on me, hence
    it's my BACKUP server.The BACKUP server is a NFS client of the main server.

    I have mounted the main server's /srv directory to /mainserver/srv on
    the backup server.

    When I do a
    rsync -vza /mainserver/srv / --delete

    I get a some rather strange errors, this one:

    readlink "/mainserver/srv/www/htdocs/www.mydomain.com/htdocs/webbutik/admin/images/CVS/Entries" failed: Permission denied

    I didn't need the file that was creating errors, so I removed it but I still get the above error, even thought the file no longer exists on the server!

    I also get a heaps of errors like this one:

    send_files failed to open "/mainserver/srv/www/htdocs/www.mydomain.com/htdocs/webbutik/catalog/images/2894": Permission denied

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,
    Dan Eskildsen
