I'm trying to rsync a file to a remote server. I have done this before to this specific server, not sure if I forgot the right command of if there is something else going on. This is my rsync command:

sudo rsync -ae ssh user@remoteServer:/kunden/homepages/40/d205309670/htdocs/RetroCatalogs "/Volumes/SystemHD/Retrospect Catalogs/Weekly Catalog [088]"

I get:

ERROR: destination must be a directory when copying more than 1 file
rsync error: errors selecting input/output files, dirs (code 3) at main.c(323)

What is going on?

Thanks...

I tried this also:
sudo rsync -avz -e ssh user@remoteServer:/kunden/homepages/40/d205309670/htdocs/RetroCatalogs/ /Volumes/SystemHD/Retrospect?Catalogs/Weekly?Catalog?[088]

and got this:
receiving file list ... done
mkdir "/Volumes/SystemHD/Retrospect?Catalogs/Weekly?Catalog?[088]" failed: No such file or directory
rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(334)

any comments? thanks

the correct format is:

rsync -avz -e ssh rsync@remote.acme.com:/home/rsync/out/ /home/rsync/from_remote

I was wrong in that, but then I couldn't escape the spaces so I had to rename the source files and directory. This is not a solution. How do I escape the spaces I already tried " ", \, \\\, ?.

thanks

the trick is using single quotes: '/Volumes/SystemHD/Retrospect Catalogs/Weekly Catalog [088]' and it worked fine. thanks
