What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I have problem running rclone backup with cron job script in /etc/cron.hourly folder. It seems it looks for the config file in /root/.config/. How to make it look for the configuration file in my home folder?
What is your rclone version (output from rclone version
)
rclone v1.54.0
Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)
MX Linux 64 bit
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp
)
