rsync

[Michael Havens]

I was wondering.... I think what I'm doing is making both home directories
identical. To not do that (and to make a backup) I should:

rsync -vva --exclude=/home/bmike1/Pictures/* --exclude=.*mozilla*
--exclude=.*chromium* ~/*backupdirectoryname
*xbmc at 192.168.0.3:/home/xbmc/;rsync
-vva --exclude=/home/bmike1/Pictures/* --exclude=.*mozilla*
--exclude=.*chromium* xbmc at 192.168.0.3:/home/xbmc/ *~/backupdirectoryname*
*
*
is this correct?
