I'm trying to rsync a smb filesystem to a novell netware filesystem. Both
file systems are mounted on a debian woody system (from root). On both file
systems the rsync process has "root" file system rights. But trying to
rsync a file with a read only flag like
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 3441648 Jan 20 1998 WEBCLIENT.EXE
to the novell filesystem gives this error:
rename
"/mnt/sunoha/vol1/USER/labor/labor/FL_Update/.WEBCLIENT.EXE.kHUBMV"
-> "labor/FL_Update/.WEBCLIENT.EXE.kHUBMV" ->
"labor/FL_Update/WEBCLIENT.EXE": Permission denied
I think the problem is that the ncpfs filesystem (or the netware server)
doesn't like the renaming of a read only file. I'm using the command
line
"rsync -acS --stats --delete-after --force".
I play a litte bit and get this result:
gateway:/mnt/sunoha/vol1# echo xxx > xxx
gateway:/mnt/sunoha/vol1# ls -l xxx
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4 Feb 27 09:53 xxx
gateway:/mnt/sunoha/vol1# chmod 444 xxx
gateway:/mnt/sunoha/vol1# ls -l xxx
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 4 Feb 27 09:53 xxx
gateway:/mnt/sunoha/vol1# mv xxx yyy
mv: cannot unlink `xxx': Operation not permitted
mv: cannot remove `xxx': Operation not permitted
gateway:/mnt/sunoha/vol1# ls -l xxx
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 4 Feb 27 09:53 xxx
gateway:/mnt/sunoha/vol1# ls -l yyy
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 4 Feb 27 09:53 yyy
Trying the same in a dos command box gives the same result. So it seems
that the netware server doesn't like that a read only file can be renamed.
Now I will try to not preserve permission maybe this is a work around.
Rsyncing the file to a xfs file system works fine.
