I have used rsync on many systems, and never had a problem. I am stumped on what to do with this. I have a box behind a LinkSys router and I can not "push" or "pull" data to or from it from anywhere. When I try, it logs into the remote server, gets the file list and just stops. The remote server shows a process running until I control-c out of it.when I do that, I get: rsync

Hi all. I have a script which I call from cron. It basically does some stopping of a few services, rsyncs all files to a remote server and then starts the services again. However, rsync segfaults: /share/bin/cron.root.backup.sh: line 28: 18453 Segmentation fault rsync -acx --delete ${_backup_dirs} backup-server::backup-client If I run rsync from the command-line everything works as

I have noticed that if you run two rsyncs at once, they get confused and copy the files from one the wrong rsync thread. Apparently this is because of the ?Build List? that is made in ram. Two build lists stepping on each other. Does anyone know how to change the source so that the each build list in ram is kept separate?

Howdy, We occassionally get the following error when running our nightly backups: rsync error: received SIGUSR1 or SIGINT (code 20) at rsync.c(229) This happens more on one or two machines than on any of the others. We've looked high and low to see if we're mistakenly sending these signals, but nothing is that we can find. Does anyone know what this might be from? Is it the server

I'm working on a commercial project that would benefit immensely from the use of rsync. However, I cannot convince management that rsync is a worthy tool due to the rote "it's shareware, it's not supported" FUD. Are there any documented, corportate users of rsync? Testimonials? In short, how do I drag this risk-averse group out of the FTP age into the rsync present? /p

I was planning to use rsync to backup to a second drive, but I ran out of swap space. No problem, I will let rsync do it a few directories at a time overnight when the computer usually sits idle except for incomming email. I have 2 question: 1. How much memory does each file to be copied need. Obvisiouly I have too many files. 2. Why does this command work: rsync -ax /usr/xx /backup/usr/

hi! I have a problem with rsync (current CVS version), running on a win2k machine (rsync compiled using Cygwin). c:\rsync>rsync --version rsync version 2.4.6dev protocol version 24 Copyright (C) 1996-2001 by Andrew Tridgell, Paul Mackerras and others Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, symlinks It can DOWNload >2gb files from my linux box (with rsync reporting negative

Is it true that when running rsync via ssh (i.e. rsync -e ssh ...) the rsyncd.conf file is not applicable on the remote since rsync is launched via the ssh exec call once connected rather than from rsyncd as in a direct connect. If so, I am trying to find the best way to restrict rsync -e ssh on the remote machine. Prepending the authorized_keys entry with command='rsync ...' 1024...

Hello, I'm planning to use rsync for backup a lot of nodes to one rsync server over wan. I'm aware of the fact that on big directory tree rsync will consume a lot of memory and some time even hang. Do you have any estimation on how many rsync client can work with one server at the same time ? I can control each client bandwidth. What will be the bottleneck on the server resource ? Is

Hello, I ftp'ed the binary RPM for samba from us6.samba.org, and when I tried to verify it, rpm said that MD5 was NOT OK. Has anyone else reported this behavior?

I have just moved to a new workplace. I saved an R workspace into an ascii file at my old workplace and have ftp'ed it down here. Unfortunately when I try to load the get a message saying that the file is corrupted. It's a big file, but my experience suggests that this normally refers to a problem at the beginning or end of a file, so I thought it might be worth enclosing just the

Hi, I got stuck within some weird prob concerning my 2-node linux cluster and the synchronisation tool at hand (rsync-2.5.1pre1). I have to copy a structure of 70 directories where the data of these directories are hardlinked to the data of the 1st directory. Within this "orig data" directory, I have about 30.000 files, so the amount of files to sync is approx. 2.100.000. The

Hi, I am trying to mirror a server every night using rsync. I have to backup multiple directories and multiple individual files. I also want to use ssh as transport. The problem is that I cannot get ssh to work without asking password for each step. I tried the public key thing but it doesnt work. Can some one give instructions for a layman like me. Also I want to know how to pass argument to

Hi, I need to mirror some Linux directories on a Win2000 box but the owner, group and permissions are lost. I realize Win2000 does not use the same system but thought there may be some way around it with cygwin. Is it possible to mimick /etc/passwd to preserve ownership etc? Is there a better solution?

Are there issues between different versions of rsync? Specifically I have a 2.4.6 on solaris 8 pushing to a 2.3.0 on solaris 2.6 over ssh(F-Secure version). The issue that I am seeing is that when I use the following command: rsync --delete -rlvp -e ssh2 $localdir user@host:remotedir The user and group are different on both boxes(neither being root). Any help would be appreciated. --Jeff
