If you want to pass non-rsync args (etc) you should be using --rsync-path. The -M option is only for sending rsync-related options. ..wayne..

I have been working on a backup server where I have a server-side script that wraps the server-side rsync invocation. I have used the client-side rsync -M (--remote-option) to send options to the server script, removing them from the command-line prior to invoking the server-side rsync. This was discussed on Stack Exchange (http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/297143). It works well. However,

I have a working Samba configuration with an internal DNS for a small office. Elsewhere on the network is a router providing DNS and DHCP services to the network (consider it a black box without administrative access). Samba is configured to use that as its DNS forwarder. My problem is that the Samba DNS knows nothing about any DNS entries created on the router, either static or from the DHCP

When you rsync a directory, say `$rsync mydir/ ...` with the trailing slash, the destination directory is changed to the ownership, permissions and timestamp of `mydir`. Consider this simple example $ mkdir test $ cd test $ mkdir a b $ touch -d '01 jan 1980' a/A $ touch -d '15 jun 1985' a $ touch -d '02 feb 1990' b/B $ touch -d '25 aug

Hello, I'm trying to script an installation and can't find the command-line argument to "samba-tool domain provision" to specify the DNS forwarder. I have tried "samba-tool domain provision --help" but I couldn't see such an option there. Does that mean there isn't one ? I also tried to use the "samba-tool --option=option" construct (described on

I can use --link-dest multiple times for backups so that files affected by a backup-delete-backup-replace-backup scenario get linked. It works well. However, consider this scenario: backup-modify-backup-undo-backup. We have * backup 1 contains file 'a' * backup 2 contains file 'a' ( with modified content) * backup 3 contains file 'a' However, the file 'a' in

Is it possible to make GPO changes from the server (i.e. without using Windows) ? I would like to include some configuration in my build-out script and wonder if it is possible. Specifically, I am trying to provide a logon script. Here's what I know. 1. I can identify the correct GPO GUID object using "samba-tool gpo listall" or with something like this $ ldbsearch -H

Good afternoon, I have a new Samba414 install on clean Ubuntu server 12.04. All working except I cannot browse into shares. I get "not accessible" and then "element not found". Using "net use" works fine - I can "browse" a share that has been attached to a drive letter but I cannot browse the UNC path. That is to say NET USE P: \\MYDOMAIN\public works,

I apologise for asking a basic question but I haven't been able to determine a sensible answer. I am using 4.1.17 as AD-DC. All configured and working with user home directories via [homes] and some other specific shares. Windows 7 client jointed to domain, users can log in and create files in their home directory. However the system permissions on those files are not what I expect and I am

I am trying to understand the difference between files created on a Samba share via Windows and directly the server's file system. I note from "stat" that an empty file created on the server with "touch" is zero bytes and zero blocks. However, an empty file created with Windows Explorer rightclick->new->text document is also zero bytes but uses 8 blocks. Adding an
