Can someone please translate this into an access to the duke.edu rsync server? I'm playing the 10,000 monkeys scene here and failing to find the correct syntax from the responses I'm getting.
I'm very short on time right now, but I can at least point you to my mirror script which uses rsync off Duke. Maybe that will help you figure out the correct paths.
Cheers,
