      I've been using Duplicati where I need a standalone backup of a thing. Web based management interface makes it super simple to manage.

      Obviously the paths would change based on where they actually live and since I want this to live outside of an individual user, pointing to the user paths would make no sense in a production case.

      Also on WSL, if you go into /mnt you can get a list of all of the disks that are mounted on your Workstation/Server.
      In the case of my workstation I only have the 1 disk, so only c is listed. Severs would likely have other drives.

      Worth noting that using rsync worked very well, but there were issues with the Outlook profile on the existing user workstation and the end result.

      Not a huge issue for us as everything is stored in O365, but worth being mindful of if your email was hosted locally.

      Also because of username convention changes, I had to set the ownership of the user profile to match the new shortened name.

      @JaredBusch : I'm not certain if this fits the bill, but what about the "diff" command? Of course, this does nothing to sync the files but does offer a way to simply compare the directories.

      diff -rs manxam jaredbusch

      This will get you :

      Files /home/manxam/TEST and /home/jaredbusch/TEST are identical Only in /home/manxam: i_am_manxam Only in /home/jaredbusch: you_are_jared

      tired or stupid or something this morning..

      works perfectly when one specifies the correct data directory on the source.

      /home/owncloud/data/

      sent 1764471 bytes received 178175 bytes 56308.58 bytes/sec total size is 148236697158 speedup is 76306.59 (DRY RUN)

      I hate that. You always have a few outliers before you standardize on things and they are always the gotchas. This has happened to me on many occasions.

      I've used rsnapshot a good bit and it's a really nice tool for simple backups.

      @DustinB3403 said in CentOS rsync between servers using keyfile to pass credentials:

      Nevermind, seems to work when I don't bother telling the system to use the authorized key.

      That IS kinda the idea. ssh just handles that for you, even when called from another program like rsync.

      @Ambarishrh You're welcome, sorry I didn't have the exact answer for you.

      But that really helped me to find the right solution 🙂
