I run this script from my desktop which downloads everything from my 
webserver onto a folder on my desktop:



#!/bin/bash

rsync -acv --delete --stats --progress --rsh='ssh' root at 10.36.38.100:/ 
/home/storage/BackUp/Serverback/webserver --exclude="/proc/" 
--exclude="/lost+found/" --exclude="/mnt/" --exclude="/dev/"



It downloads the root of 10.36.38.100 (10.36.38.100:/) to a folder on my 
computer (/home/storage/BackUp/Serverback/webserver)
