Thanks Donovan, I downloaded the librsync 0.9.6 from sf and it compiled just fine believe it or not in the new visual studio.net. There where warnings but no fatal errors and the exe seems to be running just fine. I've tested it just now on a 60 meg mdb file that I've been trying to backup.. it seems to work great!. I even saved th...

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum for questions regarding librsync, but couldn't find any others. I'm trying to get librsync working properly on Solaris 2.7 and 2.8 Sparc servers. The problem is that while librsync appears to compile cleanly, "make check" fails the sources.test. Does anyone have any insight as to why this might be? Might I...

Hello everybody, About librsync, does anyone know how to patch the delta without creating a new file ? I used the librsync and it always generates a new file, which is embarrassing if the file is over 1Gb. I tried to store the new file in RAM, but it saturates the machine. Is there a possibility to write in the current f...

I'm interested in these very questions (librsync-rsync relationship, remaining limitations of rsync, active prospects for ground-up rewrites), Google searches for rsync info have proved a little too vague due to the programs ubiquity. Much has certainly changed since this was written, could some people with knowledge in these areas could update m...

...am working on adding rsync support to BackupPC. I am implementing the server-side in perl, and the client will run vanilla rsync. (BTW, is there the protocol documented? I've answered all my questions by looking at the source, but it would be great to check against any docs.) I started with librsync 0.9.3 and the Intermezzo perl interface to librsync written by Shirish Phatak. However, as I'm sure is well-known, the Adler crc32 and MD4 computed by librsync don't match those in rsync 2.5.5. After swapping the crc32 endianess, changing RS_CHAR_OFFSET from 31 to 0, and adding rsync'...

All, Does anyone know anything about librsync, and where it is currently maintained = on the web? It apparently is/was a samba project, but I'm not sure how it relates. The authors are listed as: Martin Pool <mbp@samba.org> Andrew Tridgell <tridge@samba.org> but I suspect someone else did the 0.9.5.1 update, because only 0...

I found the cvs repository at = http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/librsync/librsync/ The sourceforge project was just setup a couple of days ago. That must have = been why google could not find it yesterday. I believe the samba cvs site for librsync is now deprecated. The 0.9.5.1 version I was looking for looks to me to be a Jun. 27 cvs snapshot = from wherever cvs wa...

Hi. It seems that librsync got left by the roadside ... is there anything similar for rsync 3.x.x? Or, is there any easy way to use the library routines in the rsync 3.x.x source independantly? The only other open source software I've found that looks similar is xdelta, and it's still beta for v3.x Thanks, Sam ---...

...a start-from-scratch update or a fully-up-to-date update are usually smaller, for instance. This is mainly because my file-list data is smaller, but it's also because I reduced the protocol overhead quite a bit. Transferred bytes for partially-changed files are still bigger than rsync because librsync creates unusually large delta sizes (though there's a patch that makes it work much better, it's still not as good as rsync). In my speed testing, one test was sending around 8.5 meg of data on a local system, and while rsync took only .5 seconds, my rzync app took around 2 seconds. A qui...

I have been really lax in supporting librsync for the last few months, because of a new job and taking over maintenance of rsync itself. Needless to say I'm delighted that people find it useful. I'd like it if Shirish and/or Donovan (or somebody else) could join in managing the package. I think it might be good to set up a small w...

On the subject of needed patches, I just recently completed a patch for librsync that fixed the mdfour code to have uint_64 or 2 uint_32's for size. Without this, the checksums on files >512Megs are incorrect. The code should drop into rsync without a hitch. The same goes for mdfour in samba, becuase that is where librsync got the code from anyway. Robert Weber...

...t use '--files-from' as we copy from $SRC/.lustre/$FID to $DST/path/to/file. Is there a way of passing a list of source _and_ destination paths?? It would have been even better if there were a rsync library that our replication tool could link to, instead of passing a list of files. The librsync project on sourceforge (librsync.sourceforge.net) seems to be unmaintained. Does anyone on this list have any experience with using rsync as a library? Kind regards, Manoj -- Manoj Joseph Lustre Group, Sun Microsystems, Inc.

...ot;@RSYNCD: 29"; then you select the module, e.g. "ftp", or list the modules via "#list". But how to select the directory in the module? And how to download a file/produce the xdelta. Is there maybe a paper or something similar describing this protocol? My other Problem is librsync -- the header file is unreadable. Is there maybe a doucmentation about this?

...ignee: wayned at samba.org Reporter: ildar at altlinux.ru QA Contact: rsync-qa at samba.org I suggest the feature was requested for tens of times before me. But I couldn't find it in the Bugzilla. RSync as the protocol may be useful to many other applications. There even is a librsync (https://github.com/librsync/librsync) which is used by a few applications, yet that librsync is incompatible with this rsync Do you think it's possible to create an API and extract the library out of the rsync code? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

Hi there Is there a commercial license for using Rsync or the Rsync algorithm within a commercial product? I appreciate that Rsync as it stands is GNU and therefore it cannot be used in this way, but I thought that I would ask the list. I understand that it is open source, but we have an application that would benefit from something like Rsync and therefore thought we would ask the question. If

Hi, I have a unique issue that I am dealing with here. I need to develop rsync algorithm into a library that can be re-used with my VB / VC application on Windows platform. I need your advice if there is any library already available on the Internet for this? I did get librsync but that is just a header file which I do not know how to compile also with the existing code I have. Can you please guide me in this? I did see a lot of your pages and even downloaded the exe from your website i.e. rsync2.5.1-dev.exe with cygwin and it works perfectly. But my requirement is th...
