Hi Ophiuchus,

The assumption is that you are issuing the command from server A. Therefore the ip at root@ must be of server B and you are entering the ip of server A.

It is best if you always post the errors and warnings you are getting, even when it looks unimportant or does not make sense to you.

Hi Aia,

Below the error.

But I'd like to connect auntomatically via script to Server A (Source Server) from Server B (Destination Server) and extract the desired files. I want to avoid to set scripts in Source Server.

Is there a way to do this?

Source Server data:
user: root
password: xyzw
IP: 192.168.100.20

Code:
find /SourceFiles/ -mtime -1 -type f -printf %P\\0 | rsync -azv --dry-run --remove-source-files --files-from=- -0  /SourceFiles/ -e ssh root@192.168.100.20:/DestinationServerB/

DestinationServerB
find: ‘/SourceFiles': No such file or directory
root@192.168.100.20's password:
building file list ...
rsync: change_dir "/SourceFiles" failed: No such file or directory (2)
rsync error: errors selecting input/output files, dirs (code 3) at flist.c(2118) [sender=3.1.1]

Thanks for the help.
