[2.5.2p1] openbsd-compat/glob.c: ARG_MAX not defined, alternative
Hi. On sparc-sun-sunos4.1.4 (i.e., -DSUNOS4), ARG_MAX is not defined anywhere, although <sys/limits.h> has the following line: #define _POSIX_ARG_MAX 4096 This is more a minimum imposed by POSIX than anything else. The proper solution revolves around this: ======================================================================== bas...

ls and rm: "argument list too long"
Since when is there a limit in how long directory listings CentOS can show (ls), or how large directories can be removed (rm). It is really annoying to say, for example rm -rf /var/amavis/tmp and get only "argument list too long" as feedback. Is there a way to go round this problem? I have CentOS 5.2. - Jussi -- Jussi Hirvi * Green Spot Topeliuksenkatu 15 C * 00250 Helsinki *

include/exclude patterns to copy just certain files?
...That is, in my example above all of the */a2 directories are also copied. Can anyone think of a way to do this? The actual source directories are relatively large with 20k total files or so in a deep hiearchy tree. So expanding them on the command line is not good since it will frequently exceed ARG_MAX. Conceptually something like the following would work if the directory was not too big and I could also line up the destination to match the source. rsync -a $(find . -name foo -print) example.com:/tmp/ # bad example for file in $(find . -name foo -print); do # another bad example dirna...

sftp needs a long time for sending a filelist
Hello all Im using sftp 1:4.7p1-8ubuntu1.2 in a batchjob Ive noticed that sftp needs a long time for sending a filelist. The timespan increases exponential if many files are on the remoteserver. for example "ls -la *.txt" needs 10 seconds for 2000 files but needs 50 seconds for 4000 files. For 150.000 Files i have to wait 15 minutes for example but the
