How to change a line in a file and send to a remote machine with rsync

Hello my friends,

I'm configuring an rsync between 2 machines, A_Server --> B_Server, using the following script:

Quote:

#!/bin/bash
#
# Script de backup a través de Rsync desde RMP-1 hasta RMP-2.
#
# Si se produce algún error en cualquier momento abortar.
#set -e

DATOS="/tmp/prueba.txt"
EXCLUDES=
OPTS="-vv --relative --delete --force --ignore-errors --delete-excluded --exclude-from=$EXCLUDES -a"
RSERVER="rsync://A_Server@192.168.1.4/A_Server/"
export RSYNC_PASSWORD=1234

#Este script sincroniza los datos de Asterisk de RMP-1 a RMP-2 a través
#del servicio rsyncd. Los datos se guardan en RMP-2 en la carpeta
#/home/RMP-1/.
"
echo
echo "Copiando datos ..."
echo "rsync $OPTS $DATOS $RSERVER"
rsync $OPTS $DATOS $RSERVER
echo "OK"

echo
echo "Hora Fin: $(date)"
echo "=)"

The Rsyn is working OK. What i need is to change one of the lines of the /tmp/prueba.txt before sending it to the remote machine (obviously not changing the file in the local machine), i mean, send prueba.txt to the remote machine deleting one line and adding another one...how can i do this????

sed is a good choice, but no clue how to put all together in the same script...i would appreciate your help

BEST REGARDS!!!

You can change it in the remote server after rsyncing:

Code:

ssh user@B sed -i '23c\'"new line" /path/to/prueba.txt

-i to inline edit
23 is line number
c stand for change

<RMP-Sangoma> root@srv-RMP3:~# ssh ddias@192.168.10.3 sed -i '2c\'"new line" /tmp/prueba.txt
ddias@192.168.10.3's password:
sed: no se puede leer line: No existe el fichero o el directorio
sed: cannot rename /tmp//sedCBV2jO: Operación no permitida
