https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6191 Summary: rsyncd path does not support environmental variables Product: rsync Version: 2.6.9 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: core AssignedTo: wayned@samba.org ReportedBy: jerome@6251100.com

...mentation: You may base the path's value off of an environment variable by surrounding the variable name with percent signs. You can even reference a variable that is set by rsync when the user connects. For example, this would use the authorizing user's name in the path: path = /home/%RSYNC_USER_NAME% Any idea what this is not working? Can we use dynamic modules? Set global parameters? I can do this outside of the rsync daemon. Chad Franks Engineer, Network Services Crowley Maritime Corp.

...rsyncd.conf.html says: "You may use references to environment variables in the values of parameters. String parameters will have %VAR% references expanded as late as possible (when the string is used in the program), allowing for the use of variables that rsync sets at connection time, such as RSYNC_USER_NAME. Non-string parameters (such as true/false settings) are expanded when read from the config file." So I configured in the config file ($USER is set in the environment): >>> path = /home/%USER%/test <<< At execution time an error occurs: >>> rsync: chroot /home/%US...

I want to vary the path rsync uses based on the user that authenitcated to the module. I can see doing this in one of two ways: 1) Append the username that was used for the connection to the path string of the module on the fly. What was /path/to/dir is now /path/to/dir/username 2) Append the username into the dest_path that was sent from the other side. The effect of this would do the same

Hello, I'm attempting to use the pre-xfer exec and post-xfer exec utilities to replace a complicated script which tails the rsync log and does A Bunch Of Stuff at the beginning and completion of rsync transfers. (It will also allow us to throw away a nasty hack which forces rsync to log the fact that is exiting - trying to provide a catch for /all/ possible exit conditions (ie, strings in the

I am using rsync/rsnapshot on Windows XP (via cygwin) to backup to a mapped share (/u) on a Linux server. I’m hoping to get this to work so that I don’t have to open an XP share to the network for Linux “pull” backups. My current setup doesn’t seem to give me incremental backups. See the “du” output… $ /usr/bin/du -csh /cygdrive/u/docs_bkup/daily.0/ /cygdrive/u/docs_bkup/daily.1/

Hi, I added a few things to allow the rsync daemon?more refined authorization and authentication than the current implementation. The attached patch file is against the 3.0.6 version. Additions: 1. allow the uid and gid used to access a certain module to be determined by the authenticated user - ??? uid = __auth__ will use the auth_user's uid ??? gid = __auth__ will use the auth user's
