Trying to fix an rsnapshot backup, .. so the need is to copy 
'weekly.0' to 'daily.0' where all the files in 'daily.0' are 
hard-links to the originals in 'weekly.0' [which may themselves be 
hard-links]. It would appear that the rsync command should be something like:
	rsync -avH --link-dest=[path]/weekly.0   [path]/weekly.0   [path]/daily.0
Unfortunately, it refuses to set the links after trying many 
variations - what's missing?
	TIA,
	Lee
