I've upgraded laptops and have put a new version of R on the new machine as well as the tools for building packages. I know R has required a "non-broken" version of tar for some time now and was hoping to not have to install any cygwin tools. Since building packages requires the use of MinGW and MSYS, why can't we simply use the tar that's part of msys? After looking at

Hi dear list members It's some time that we have issue regarding backup script of samba 4.0.10.

This filter can be used to open tar files. It uses the technique first suggested by Eric Blake here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2020-July/msg00017.html We suggest that nbdkit-tar-plugin is deprecated in nbdkit 1.26, but it might happen later. --- docs/nbdkit-captive.pod | 4 +- filters/offset/nbdkit-offset-filter.pod | 2 +- filters/tar/nbdkit-tar-filter.pod

Hi List, hope this is not too offtopic, but this bothers me and my backup. My backups are tar jobs in cron, eg: 20 23 * * * tar -zcf /mnt/backupInternalHosts/backup/backup.tar.gz /etc /root /home && touch /tmp/state_backup-backup This always sends me an unwanted email with: tar: Removing leading `/' from member names I consider this a bug because this informal message is

If you're planning to rsync it over, tar it up, and delete the directory tree, you should just tar|gzip it on the work system and catch that in a file on the other end.

Greetings Group! I hope this will be an easy one. To conserve steps in backing up the metadata extended attributes of a Lustre mdt, I am looking at using a newer version of tar combined with its --xattrs option. (Note: Previously I have used the mdt two-step back-up from the Lustre Manual and it has been successful.) If I can backup the extended attributes via tar so that I don''t

Hello. I am trying to copy an entire directory structure from a Unix box to an NT share using a command like this: tar -c -h -O /usr/local/sh | smbclient //ntstldls01/rs8724$ -Tx - -D chico -U myuser%mypasswd The problem is it chokes when it hits a file with 2 links (hard links - not sym links). I am using "-h" with tar to try to force it to copy the file rather than the link, but

Part of that script is backup from a database file of one W2K machine to another W2K machine for storage. I use mount -t smbfs to mount some W2K shares on linux: //windows-1/AccountingData on /mnt/AccountingData type smbfs (0) //windows-1/Database on
