...et --delete to work, but I'd prefer to delete files only on a successful transfer, to ensure that the end-user has a working collection of files, no matter what release. For some reason, --delete-after does nothing for me, even as administrator on the Win2k box that's acting as a client. Daemian Mack

...ndows as the sole member of the administrators group, something is still awry. If I set the file permissions so that I can access it from within my Cygwin bash shell, rsync complains that it's world readable. The only way it doesn't complain about that is if it can't read it at all. Daemian Mack

...nto the local box. I can't figure this out. I don't know if rsync-for-cygwin's algorithm for determining file differences is lacking somehow, or if something about this data is tricking rsync into thinking changes have occurred, or if I'm just doing something dumb. Any ideas? Daemian Mack

...ly, whether or not there is a limit, is it possible to do some sort of file-include for the auth users field, instead of enumerating every account?

Has anybody out there set up a rsync environment that allows mirroring of files between two Windows 2000 servers? Douglas Hornyak Senior Systems Architect Spring Lake Consulting, LLC

Hi, Just starting out with rsync, and I think I might be missing a fundamental point of how it works. Scenario: I start an rsync daemon on host A, and define a module 'test' on the rsyncd.conf file. 'test' is essentially my home directory on host A I then sign on to host B and issue rsync --progress --recursive --links --stats arthur::test/ /var/tmp/haggis This copies

[I wish the list archives were searchable, this most likely is a repeat question] We have a set of cron jobs that do regular rsyncs mirroring two trees. This has been pretty stable. Over the weekend, almost all of them broke with this message: rresvport: bind: Permission denied (15728) Error reading 4 bytes : EOF Under what conditions does this error occur? It looks like it couldn't bind
