I am runninng rsync on Ubuntu. It was installed using apt-get install rysnc. I note that the package has not yet been updated to rysnc 3.0. I would like to update using the tar but I am confused how to update the existing installation. On this machine, I am mainly using rsync to send to a cwrsync server (which I have updated already). Can I just overwrite the rsync executable? Any help

Hi, I am a newbie to Rysnc and a had a quick question, the answer for which I wasn't able to find in the documentations. Currently I have Solaris system A which has files that are being generated and changed in real time. I am running rysnc in daemon mode on A.(server) On system B I use the appropriate rysnc command to connect to system A and sync all the files on B. I am having

Hello, I have been using rsync to sync data from 1 ftp server to a backup ftp server. Both servers are Solaris 10 X86, and the file systems being synced are a few hundred zfs user data file-systems under the parent/root ftp area. I noticed an unexpected problem in the sync log files, one of the user data directories had bumped up against it's quota, and failed to write the data. That is

Hi, My backup server (B) has a /backup/home and I'd like to restore /backup/home/userX to /home/userX in my server A I am trying to do with in the server where I want to restore. rsync -e ssh -avzp -R --exclude "*.journal" backup_server:/backup/home/userX/ /home/userX But it is creating a /home/userX/backup/home/userX What am I doing wrong? -------------- next part

Hi folks, I'm having a problem with my rsync between two areas between a WAN. The problem is really odd. I have a script that runs every night. Lately, we've been having problems with rsync. The source side is an ordinary file while the destination side is a symlink. We've been having problems with rsync deleting the symlink and repacing it with the source copy despite having it in

What I want to do is use rsync to back up a folder to an external drive. I would like to keep 30 days worth. For example: I have backups of June 1 - June 30. Once July 1 comes along, I want to keep June 2 - July 1 and delete June 1, and so forth. Any ideas how I can accomplish this? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Rysnc-Schedule-tf4104577.html#a11672997 Sent from the

Greetings All, I am planning on authoring a web-based (CGI) interface to rsync. The idea is to build a fool-proof interface for my web designers to push content changes from our development server to our live production server. I am talking about an interface which allows point-n-click navigation of file system folders and the ability to push files. These users are both MAC and Windows based. We

Im brand new to rsync and i been doing alot of reading about it and it looks like the tool I have long been wanting. Bascially i got 1 server, 2 hard drives. partions are / /boot /home /usr /var /backup (2nd drive) Bascially what i am looking at doing is mirroring the first drive to the 2nd drive, and once that intial one is moved over, have a cron run nightly (or when specified) that will

Hi, Rsync is a fantastic program, and it does everything we need in terms of file transfer and syncing source and destination file directories. We do have a situation now where we need rsync to transfer the files once only from the source directory. Please let me briefly explain using a simple generic exmple: 1. At t0, we transfer f0 location A to location B 2. At t1, 10 new

Hello, Can someone point me to documentation on how to best backup a samba member server? I see the wiki currently does not contain one. Is it as simple as backup all shared folders with rysnc or similar that will preserve ACLS along with the smb.conf? I'm currently relying on a raid solution. Thanks. -- -James

hello, I'm running an Gentoo distribution on my computer, lately I've started to get error messages that are rsync related. here is a log of the output: Fetching most recent snapshot Attempting to fetch file dated: 20080219 portage-20080219.tar.bz2: OK Syncing local tree... building file list ... rsync: link_stat "/var/tmp/emerge-webrsync/portage/180" failed: No such file or

Is it possible to configure rsync in server mode, to gain access to root protected files, without the user having to log in as root through ssh? I'd prefer to login as a regular user through ssh and access an rysnc server on the host that's running as root. As far as I can tell, however, that's not possible...am I wrong?

I have setup a Rysnc server in Mandrake 9.1 When I add a auth user into my Rsync.conf and rsync.secrets, it do not work, everytime it shows [root@html]# rsync chris@mandrake82::XXXXX/.html/. / Password: @ERROR: auth failed on module XXXXX rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (89 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165) This is my rsync's

Hi I am making an extraordinary claim: rysnc seems to copy all my files, not just ones that have changed or new files. rsync version 2.6.0 protocol version 27 Debian 3.0 Woody I have tested this with one simple file, my example is shown below. Does anyone have any suggestions to rectify this? Regards Gareth example: I create a file called 'testfile' in /tmp/play containing the

Hello everyone, I'm new to this mailing list but I have been using rsync for some years up to now. I'm trying to synchronize two directory trees, but I want a special behavior that I didn't find on the net nor in the manual (or maybe there is a combination of options to get what I want but I couldn't find it). Tree A is like: A * * FolderA * * And tree B (on a remote

Hello, I search a way to continue processing backup event i/o errors occured on the remote server. I use rsync to make backup of files on a files-server. Recently I had a corrupted file on the files-server and rysnc crash, and don't continue to backup the rest of files. I have found the --ignore-errors rsync option but it seems only about deleting action. On backup server I use this

We are using rsync to mirror around 10 of our websites from dedicated server A to dedicated server B runing RHEL 3.0 and rysnc v2.6.3pre1 in a daemon mode. I am using the following crontab script command on dedicated server A: /usr/local/bin/rsync -avz -e "ssh -i /home/users/admin/publicKey-for-server-B" /home/serverA/site3 serverB::home/mirror Dedicated server B (where the

Besides, obviously, the potential shared data on file servers, can't you just use the script that is introduced for backing up DCs?

Hi Andrew, I can't shutdown the old samba box as it will still be hosting the shares. Can I do any of the following? Would it make sense for me to migrate the backend to LDAP ? Or following your first comment, can I setup rysnc every 5 minutes to replicate data. You're right it is a migration path but I can't migrate until this works in the test environment Thank you RT On Wed,
