Hi all, I'm trying to get rsync running on a Windows 2k box (my tape backup server) to remotely back up stuff from a few unix boxes. Not my favored constellation, but there's not much I can do about that. I'm hoping someone could give me a quick tip or two on getting rsync working as a Win2k service. I'm not real proficient with Win2k, so be gentle. The posts I could find

Hello! I want to start rsync on w2k as service. If I try to start rsync from command line it simply do nothig: $ rsync --daemon Administrator@dm-w2ks /usr/bin $ ps PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND 480 1 480 480 con 500 04:15:03 /usr/bin/bash 1428 480 1428 1420 con 500 05:26:46 /usr/bin/ps Administrator@dm-w2ks

I'm sorry to bug you guys but when I tried to install the sshd service it didn't work. I'm running the newest build of Cygwin with Openssh and cygrunsrv on windows 2000. The configuration file was supposed to register sshd as a service but the service couldn't start! It was supposed to but it DIDN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got instructions that were supposed to work from

Hi all, Occasionally, DIDs from different providers stop working for some reason. I would like to be able to monitor situations like that and react before any of my clients start going ballistic on me. Any ideas? Scripts you know of or wrote and willing to share? Any info?would be greatly appreciated. ? Robert ? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hello list, after the last time that mpg123 wen ballistic on our production system, we decided to skip mp3 playback altogether and to go for raw files. After half an hour playing with mpg123 and sox parameters in order to translate a mp3 file to a wav file that can be streamed back through * with no need for an mp3 decoder, I thought I'd post the result to the list to avoid wasting

Hi! Samba 2.2.4, Linux. smbd loses connection to the PDC - although rest of organization feels fine... I've had the following cropping up: Jul 25 07:40:13 10.17.0.2 smbd[6994]: [2002/07/25 07:40:13, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(38) Jul 25 07:40:13 10.17.0.2 smbd[6994]: [2002/07/25 07:40:13, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(39) Jul 25 07:40:13 10.17.0.2 smbd[6994]: Please read the file

Hello, I'm following the recipe 26.2.1.4 to disable roaming profiles for win9x and XPpro machines, but perhaps I'm missing something because it doesn't seem be possible get the home shares mapped with profiles disabled. windows machines fails with this error: ------------------------------------------------------------------- net use u: /HOME The user's home directory has not

In order to run some performance tests on optimization tools, I want to be able to avoid the use of swap memory. In *nix systems, at least Linux ones, I can issue a 'sudo swapoff -a' command and use just the RAM available. If I don't do this, at some point swap will be used, the disk goes ballistic and the machine is unresponsive because it is thrashing data to the swap. I

[I didn't see any replies to my 12/27 post... so reposting it] One day samba was working fine, the next it wasn't. I didn't change anything on either the Fedora Core 6 machine (relay) nor the XP Pro machine (oob2). I'm running Samba 3.0.23c on a fully patched FC6 x86 box. I followed all the steps in "Procedure 38.1. Diagnosing Your Samba Server", and until I got to

Hello list! I have mongrel service 0.1.0 working on my current production machine. Upgrading to a new server and also moving to mongrel service 0.3.1 has not worked yet. I am hoping someone will have an idea as to why. I have mongrel installed properly (I think): C:\rails\igacc>gem list --local *** LOCAL GEMS *** ... mongrel (1.0.1) A small fast HTTP library and server that runs

AFAI've understood 'samba-tool domain passwordsettings' set domain password settings, while the GPO equivalent settings is for the client (windows client and server os). Currently i've enabled password complexity checks server side: root at vdcsv1:~# samba-tool domain passwordsettings show Password informations for domain 'DC=ad,DC=fvg,DC=lnf,DC=it' Password

Hi, Cygwin only: Under some circumstances, the sshd service gets accidentally started *before* the network service has been started up. The reason that this can happen is, that the sshd service gets installed without a dependency to the network service in contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config so far. The below patch fixes that by adding a dependency to the "tcpip" Windows service. This

Hi, could somebody with checkin rights please apply the below patch? It would be helpful to have this in 5.9p1. I revamped the Cygwin-specific service installer script ssh-host-config. The actual functionality is the same, the revisited version is just more exact when it comes to check for problems which disallow to run certain aspects of the script. So, part of this script and the also

I've spent a long time searching the archives and can't find a solution to my problem- apologies if I've missed it. I've been running rsync absolutely fine for a couple of months on Win2K server using Win2K & WinXP clients with a 'regular' service installation using cygrunsrv (below). It works excellently except that all the files transferred by rsync have the

Hi, The below patch fixes two problems. The first one is a better support for automated scripts. The old script had a logic problem when it came to asking the caller for the user account to use for the sshd service. The second is a problem in the usage of eval. Could somebody with checkin rights please apply the patch? Thanks, Corinna Index: contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config

Hi, the following patch changes two files in the contrib/cygwin subdir: It changes the Cygwin specific README file which adds some hints related to the new feature to switch user context without password (which means using public key and/or rhosts authentication). Some old stuff is erased. The changes to ssh-host-config are intended to allow an easier startup for users which are new to Cygwin

Dear all, we have been using samba as PDC with ldap for over a year without any problems. Now we are trying to switch to a another operating system version and another samba version and have big problems with our windows clients (NT, 2000 and XP). Some have problems logging on to the domain (error C000019B), others give the net helpmsg 3678 (problems saving profile) and/or the netlogon script

Hi all, This is happening on a Samba 3.0.1 PDC-controlled domain, so I'm not sure if the issue is Samba-related. If not, perhaps somebody can point me in the right direction. One of my users has a printer connected to his Win2k PC (name UPSTAIRS-SMALL). Printing to it from another (WinXP) workstation fails miserably. I tried to go back to first principles and go Start->Run
