Yes, It can<br> </div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">So long as the linux box can see the destination, rsync can probably
<br>talk to it. The external drive is just another path on your file system<br>when mounted, so it's a simple rsync /imagepath /usbpath and you're done.</blockquote><div><br>Exactly. I do it with<br><br>rsync --progress --recursive --links --perms --times --devices --delete --timeout=300 <source_path> <Backup_path>
