So now I installed cpio on the webserver and using the include file works:

Code:
sudo ssh -o "PasswordAuthentication no" -o "HostbasedAuthentication yes" -l testuser 192.168.3.1 "find /var/www/vhosts/mywebsite.com -depth | grep -f include| cpio -oavc| gzip" > $backup_dir/fullwwwsite$date.cpio.gz

but oddly when used with the exclude file which I have test locally and it doesnt work:

Code:
sudo ssh -o "PasswordAuthentication no" -o "HostbasedAuthentication yes" -l testuser 192.168.3.1 "find /var/www/vhosts/mywebsite.com -depth | grep -f include |grep -v -f exclude"| cpio -oavc| gzip > $backup_dir/fullwwwsite$date.cpio.gz

I also tried which didnt work:

Code:
sudo ssh -o "PasswordAuthentication no" -o "HostbasedAuthentication yes" -l testuser 192.168.3.1 "find /var/www/vhosts/mywebsite.com -depth" | grep -f include |grep -v -f exclude| cpio -oavc| gzip > $backup_dir/fullwwwsite$date.cpio.gz

it still complains:

Code:
cpio: /var/www/vhosts/mywebsite.com/httpdocs/data/customer/log/kwesthuba.log: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
cpio: /var/www/vhosts/mywebsite/httpdocs/data/customer/log/chaz.key: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
cpio: /var/www/vhosts/mywebsite/httpdocs/data/customer/log/mob786.key: Cannot stat: No such file or directory

So its appears to be "cpio -oavc" which does not want to receive output via the webserver or locally. ???????
