[SOLVED] rsync command to download an .iso file.
by camorri from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5AKBE)
I'm trying to download the latest current .iso plasma file and have no success.
I have read online "how tos" that tell you to rsync over ssh. I don't think that can work, unless I have ssh set up on the server. I have not found any information on how to do that, and I don;t think that is going to happen for the community.
OK, so that leaves rsync. Here is what my last failing attempt looked like.
Code:rsync -av //slackware.uk/people/alien-slacklive/latest/slackware-live-current.iso /home/cliff/data/slackware/slackware-live-current.isoCould someone show me the errors in my ways?
This is the output, which has not helped me fix my error.
