similar to: BUG: scp -r follows symlinks

hey, I just got an ugly, hard-to-fix surpirse when I upgraded from 3.6 to 3.7 for openssh - Now, in 3.7.1, /etc/default/login overrides --with-default-path! Before, it used to prefer --with-default-path (as configured). I'm hoping that this is a bug. It forces every user to have an appropriate .login,.cshrc, or whatever *or* to comment out the appropriate entries in / etc/default/login!

Mike, As it stands right now, we use xz for our compression, so if rsync had a similar option for xz that would probably be an improvement. However, I think being able to decompress directly to the remote system would save more; elsewise I don't see how I'm going to be able to avoid untarring and uncompressing the whole xz file on the other end. thanks much, ed On Tue, Dec 6, 2016 at

hey.. I talked to my sysadmins about getting access to the dtrace_kernel role, and they said they were hesitant to give this out because they thought it was a security risk - ie: that you could use it for privilege escalation. How true is this? Is there a way to make it user safe? If not, why is it offered as an option for regular users? Thanks much, Ed -- This message posted from

Hi, % scp -v user at host:file.txt . [..] debug: Remote protocol version 1.99, remote software version OpenSSH_2.3.0p1 debug: Local version string SSH-1.5-OpenSSH_2.1.1 [..] debug: Sending command: scp -v -f file.txt debug: Entering interactive session. Sending file modes: C0644 3093316 file.txt Since it 'interactives' the remote user needs a shell. Any workaround? But more interesting

All, A bit of background: I work on a QA API on a network that is very choppy (a lot of network interrupts), and we use ssh to do a large part of this automation. This leads to some problems: ssh connections seem to be sensitive to network state, becoming unusable if the choppiness reaches a certain threshold, and either timing out or disconnecting if this happens. Anyways, I stumbled across

It's especially annoying since we use here a lot of scripts which check for the return values of scp to indicate success or failure. In fact it does the good thing on nonexistent files/dirs/etc, but fails in case of auth

hey all, I'm using openssh-3.5p1, was trying to set up a 'reverse telnet' session (sun solaris 2.6 on both machines). Anyways, I was doing: server% ssh -R 1111:<server>:2222 <client> client% ssh -p 1111 <client> where <server> is behind a firewall and <client> cannot reach <server> Anyways the idea was to connect to the socket on

hey, I was wondering - is there an option to rsync which allows you to exclude transfers of files with a certain size or other characteristics? I want to setup a 'partial' rsync mirror where I only pull files under 5M, for example.. I see the option for including/excluding file names in the usage, but not file sizes.. Ed

Here is a patch to add the missing scp -1 and -2 options to eliminate confusion for users familiar with the commercial version of SSH.

hello- i am using rsync via ssh to maintain a copy of a few directories on a remote server, and am getting an error when rsync tries to chmod a certain file following it's transfer. there are a couple of cases in which this occurring - below is one example. local machine is debian testing - rsync version 2.6.3 protocol version 28 remote machine is macos x 10.3.7 - rsync version 2.6.2

A minor issue, but I''m seeing that when we generate a application skeleton using the "rails" command, the generated script files follow the symlink of our ruby installation. On our machines, ruby is installed under /usr/pkg/ruby/ruby182/ with a symlink /usr/pkg/ruby/ruby -> /usr/pkg/ruby/ruby182/ Our sysadmins like using the symlinks as a way of managing the

I've always found the name ComputeMaskedBits a bit unintuitive, and since r154011 it's even worse because there is no masking going on whatsoever: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20120402/140280.html Is there any appetite for a global rename to ComputeKnownBits? Or any other better names? Thanks, Jay.

Hi all, Apologies if this has been asked before (a quick google didn't find it for me),and I know this is a case of behaving as documented but its so unintuitive (to me at least) that I figured I'd bring it up here anyway. I figure its probably going to not be changed, but I'm happy to submit a patch if this is something R-core feels can/should change. So I recently got bitten by

Howdy Y''all, I was thrilled to recently discover migrations, as that framework addresses a common problem in an elegant way. I have, however, gotten tripped up a bit as I''ve worked with them. The first problem I encountered was that, though I was using a BigInt data type in a field in my dev database, my unit tests were failing because when I copied the schema from the dev

Dear all, I am trying to synchronize data from a remote machine (ssh) to my local one using rsync (pure scp would overwrite everything every time). The problem is, however, that due to the size of data and available storage, I have to distribute it over several hdd's. For that I have a script, which moves every single file (typical size ~ 4GB) to a different (randomly selected) hdd, leaving
