Backup Central

Hi there! I try to use for my first time the rsnapshot tool, to backup
my working directory with my university server via rsync-ssh.
The problem is that the "rsnapshot" synchronize my working directory
with the var/cache/rsnapshot/daily.#/user < at > 83.212.99.52/ rather than with
the remote server.

More detailed, I'm setting up the "BACKUP POINTS" like that:

backup /home/user/Work/ user < at > 83.212.99.52:/home/user/sync/Work/

and I'm getting from the "rsnapshot" test mode, this rsync command:

usr/bin/rsync --delete --numeric-ids --relative --delete-excluded \
/home/user/Work \
/var/cache/rsnapshot/daily.0/user < at > 83.212.99.52:/home/user/sync/Work/

What am I doing that wrong,

Thanks in advanced

I presume that /var/cache/rsnapshot is your snapshot_root.

You've got the arguments the wrong way round. You should have the
source first, then the destination.
