hi

I am using http://pastebin.com/d4b062d28 for rsync from src host to
dest host
the roots cron entry is "02 4 * * * su sms /usr/local/bin/
testrsync_mysql.sh"

I am getting error in the logs

building file list ... rsync: pop_dir "/root" failed: Permission
denied (13)
rsync error: errors selecting input/output files, dirs (code 3) at
flist.c(1356) [sender=2.6.9]


Am i missing something

Thanks and Regards

Kaushal

Your script runs as user sms, who doesn't have permission to read
the /root directory.
