Hi, I have set up two servers as rsync servers with ssh, they sync agianst each other. I can pull data down from either remote node when logged into one of them, using a module defined on both servers. However I don't seem to be able to push from the localhost to the remote rsync server. I think I'm using the incorrect syntax. If someone could highlight where I'm going wrong it would be great. I can pull down from remote host beqoas2 to localhost beqoas1 using the rsync rsync -Cvaupogzb --suffix=-`date '+%H:%M-%d-%m-%y'` -e ssh beqoas2::test /var/tmp/rsync-test/ test is the module name I can push from localhost beqoas2 to beqoas1 but not using the rsync server rsync -cvaupogzb --suffix=-`date '+%H:%M-%d-%m-%y'` -e ssh file1 beqoas1:/tmp/file1 I can't push from localhost to remote a rsync server rsync -Cvaupogzb --suffix=-`date '+%H:%M-%d-%m-%y'` -e ssh /var/tmp/rsync-test/ beqoas2::test /var/tmp/rsync-test/ again test is the module name Thanks, Niall. ******************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

In released versions of rsync, you can't combine ssh and daemon mode with "::"; the -e command is ignored. In the developer's version of rsync in CVS, that functionality was recently added. It's not clear whether or not that's what you really want, however. What features of the rsync daemon mode were you hoping to take advantage of? - Dave Dykstra On Fri, Aug 30, 2002 at 04:31:53PM +0100, Fanning, Niall wrote:> Hi, > > I have set up two servers as rsync servers with ssh, they sync > agianst each other.

Hi, we need to tunnel rsync through ssh, we are using rsync to keep certain critical file's synchronised within a Veritas cluster. For security reasons the transmission of these files must use ssh. We were hoping to build rsync into the cluster as a resource using the daemon option, however from what you have said that doesn't seem possible. I think we'll have abandon the daemon option. Thanks, Niall. -----Original Message----- From: Dave Dykstra [mailto:dwd@bell-labs.com] Sent: 30 August 2002 22:02 To: Fanning, Niall Cc: 'rsync@lists.samba.org' Subject: Re: syntax for push to remote rsync server In released versions of rsync, you can't combine ssh and daemon mode with "::"; the -e command is ignored.
