I recently transferred the / partition on my CentOS server from a small disk to a large disk, using "rsync -auvz". This works fine, except that I get dozens of selinux warnings when I re-boot. I'm running selinux in permissive mode. Is there any way to make sure that all the files in a partition are kosher as far as selinux is concerned? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +...

...n to get it installed. Problem: Rsync seems to always synch soft links instead of only synching "new" ones. I have 2 machines and I run 2 rsync commands from one of them to keep them in synch. First I rsync to the remote box and have it send the local side all new stuff (rsync -auvz) and then I rsync from the local box and send the local new stuff back. This works really well for standard files and directories... but it breaks on soft links. On the first rsync I will get an older link from the remote site copied over a newer link on the local side. It seems to always synch...

...googled about my problem and found some hints but not a complete solution. Situation: On laptop 1, I am user oub (uid=1000) and in the sudo list. I connect an USB drive (jfs file system), its get automatically mounted with the correct uid. I copy files with rsync from laptop 1 to the USB. ( rsync -auvz --progress /home/oub/files /media/usb ) However: On laptop 2, I am user oub (uid=1002) and in the sudo list. Now when I connect the USB (jfs file system) its get automatically mounted however as uid=1000 which is another user on Laptop2. There is a patch for mount which allows to set the UID and G...

...aling about 2.5MB and it took longer than wanted to wait. Currently I mount the mirrored directories from the second mirrored server with smbfs and use rsync from the mounted directories. So this isn't a major issue to me. I use the following options with rsync. directly over network: rsync -auvz from the mounted smb shares: rsync -av -W Any ideas why there is such a huge difference on the two methods? --petri--

...e. I have a local computer that most work gets done on. I wanted to set rsync to run nightly with a cron job to sync data, and then promptly run again in the other direction so as to get the most update files on both computers. I thought the following would work, but it doesn't seem to. rsync -auvz --progress -e ssh account@distantcomp:~/rsync-testing /home/rob rsync -auvz --progress -e ssh ~/rsync-testing account@distantcomp:~/ The receiving computer gets its files overwritten, whether they are newer or not. The only thing I can think of (other than the more likely fact that I made some bo...

...rying to connect via rsync to host as axlink and start a 'rsync --sender' process, to transfer data within the ssh process. "rsync -auve ssh -z --port=22 --password-file=/export/home/tester01/rsync.pwd /export/home/tester01/. axlink@host:/home/axlink/rs" should be "rsync -auvz --password-file=/export/home/tester01/rsync.pwd /export/home/tester01/. axlink@host::/home/axlink/rs" You don't use an external transport (-e ssh) to go to a rsync daemon. --port=22 implies that you don't have ssh, but rather rsyncd on port 22. rsyncd ordinarily listens on port 873,...

Hi folks, I've been trying to wrap my head around this for a bit, done my googling and archive searching but I still can't seem to 'get' it. Here goes: I've a spare drive in my CentOS5.1 box, which (for testing now) I mount manually under /mnt/backup I want to backup the /home tree to that box nightly via rsync (cronjob), so I tried this: rsync -avrogz /home/

Hey folks, I've been through the rsync documentation, and to the best of my ability, I dont see how to do exactly what I wish to do. I'd go through the mailing list archives, but there doesnt seem to be a search function. Essentially, I need to rsync securely between some sites, but I want logs written. The problem is, it appears that using rsyncd is the only way to get logs, but if

...s and run it again it copies all the files again. I'm trying to determine what's making it think the files are not up-to-date. I have all the debug flags turned on. Am I missing something that will let me know what rsync is thinking?

Hi all, I have just re-joined the list. I have been using Rsync on my Linux servers for a number of years now without fault. I now have the need to Rsync data between two Solaris 2.7 servers.
