[PLUG] rsync

[Bruce Kilpatrick]

All,

I have been playing around with rsync getting ready to upgrade to 
Natty.  I have an encrypted /home and some reading suggests that 
occasional failures happen to the home partition during installation.

I put together a script sometime back and the external hard drive is now 
full.  Have deleted some old backups that weren't necessary to make some 
room.  Looking at the logfile...some adjustments are in order.

The question is which of the dot files are really necessary to keep, and 
will it save much room if they are not copied?

Thanks,

Bruce
