Auth problem when running a remote script over SSH
...etd to start the service). This is my home computer.
A script on my computer at work (having an older rsync version 2.4.6,
protocol 24) synces the files between the two computers. When I log on to
this computer using ssh and execute the script everything is fine. So I do:
ssh me@computer.work
./syncfiles (this is the script)
The script contains the line:
rsync -arvcu thesis/ home.computer::work/thesis
However (here comes the funny part), when I try to call the script like this:
ssh me@workcomputer './syncfiles'
I get an auth failed error:
2004/05/30 20:23:23 [13009] auth failed on module...

Implementing a conditional branch within rsync based on modified time of a file
..., it would just delete any and all new files created on a client since the last sync.
The best solution I can envision is to write a shell script (or modify the rsync source) which would alter step 1 above to the following:
global variable lastSync; //last synchronization for this client
function syncFile(file, modifiedDate){
if (modifiedDate > lastSync){
//this must be a new file created from another client.
download the file from the server
}
else{
//the file has been deleted on the client since the last sync, delete it.
delete the file.
}
}
I suppose I would first...
