I have so far been unable to get rsync to work properly in a test setup. Does anyone have any ideas? Both PCs are running RedHat 7.2. The Server: IP Address 192.168.0.202 Server Name: RH72TB hosts.allow ALL: 192.168.0.201 rsyncd.conf: [testmodule] path = /tmp The Client: IP Address 192.168.0.201 hosts file: 192.168.0.202 RH72TB I have run "rsync --daemon" on the server.

I have read the MAN page and the Rsync page and have set up an /etc/rsync.conf but I can't seem to get it working. I have tried starting the daemon and adding the correct entry on the server hosts.allow file, but I just get "Connection refused" from the server. Surely this can't be that difficult, but I am at a bit of a loss. Can anyone help? Regards, Brad

Can anyone give me a hand with printing. Does hosts.lpr need the ips of the windows machines that I want to print from? I am running Mandrake 6.0 on a P-166. The P-166 has the printer attached to it. It can print just fine and another linux box can also print just fine over the network. My Windows box sees the printer and installs it just fine. The test page however never prints. No error

I have Rsync working ok, backing up some server directories onto another server each evening. If I do an rsync back up of a directory - called "test", for example - and in the "test" directory there is a file called "testfile", it gets backed up OK. However, if that file, "testfile" gets deleted from the original "test" directory, when I run

I am having some problems getting rsync working. No files get copied, although the server HD light DOES come on for about a second when I run the client rsync command. The /etc/rsyncd.conf on the server: ============================== uid = root gid = root log = /var/log/rsync.log read only = no [email] # Email data files from /var/spool/mail on Proxy (192.168.0.100) path = /home/databackup/

We have a Red Hat 7.3 file server that serves about 30 Windows PCs via Samba 2.2.3a. I have one group called "users" that everyone is in but when a file is created by a PC, the group ownership on the created file is not "users", but the same as the file owner name. Is there any way to force the group ownership of created files? Also, is there any way to force file

After lots of testing, I believe that I have discovered my problem. I am trying to use rsync to synchronise a Red Hat 7.2 Server and a RedHat 7.3 Server and they have different versions of rsync on them. I set up 2 x Red Hat 7.3 machines, both running rsync-2.5.4-2 and they work fine, transferring files via rsync with no problem. Here is my test rsyncd.conf on the server

I have a Red Hat 8.0 PC with a scanner connected and I am scanning images with sane. I would like to store the scanned images on a Red Hat 7.3 file server using Samba, but I am having some difficulty understanding how the file and directory security preferences work. I can attach to the share (called "Shared") with: smbmount //server/Shared /mnt/S -o username=username%password and
