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, I have a rsync server set up.

Hi all, I was wondering if it will require any major rewrites of the daemon/client to include limits on the data transfer rate ? Alexei.

I just installed rsync on two machines, I think I'm a complete moron, and I need a clue bat. The remote machine's /etc/rsyncd.conf (just for testing): use chroot = no log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid lock file = /var/run/rsync.lock [auth] path = /var/www/auth comment = apache authentication files. read only = yes Then for a test, I fired up

Hi, I have some files size 400MB+ that my rsync ends on, error message is : "Write failed: Broken pipe". Without this "big files" everything works smoothe. I searched to find anything about this problem but so far without any luck. Source machine : Solaris 8, rsync-2.4.6 Destination machine : FreeBSD 4.1.1, rsync 2.4.6 Command run(from source machine): rsync

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

Sonu: I'm giving the whole history to the rsync list. If the tests i subscribed passed, yet you get that error, it's more in depth than i can go into. You've got 1 hour, let's hope somebody immediately recognizes the problem. I've got some ideas, but no time to explore any more for you. Gentlemen: does anybody see a quick resolution for Sonu? Looks like he's

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

Hi all, Here is the problem that I need to solve: I have an ftp server that I wish to rsync the files from a directory on the remote server to a local server and then when the files are complete, move them to a public directory on the local server.

I am attempting to rsync data from a rsync server and set the permissions to a different gid on the client: my servers name is "rserver01" my clients name is "rclient01" here is the rysync.conf contained on rserver01: # log file log file = /var/adm/rsync_log # global options for all modules dont compress = *.gz *.tgz *.zip *.z *.rpm *.deb *.iso *.bz2 *.tbz uid = nobody

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...

Howdey, I was trying to find out if it is possible to have RSYNC only give me the transfer stats that it normally gives at the end of a transfer when using the -v switch. BUT I do not what to have the long list of files that are accompanied with it. Is there a way to do this? Thank you. Bob. Here is my current rsync script line. /usr/local/lib/rsync/bin/rsync -azR --delete

I'm stuck on a problem with rsync... We've got a chrooted shell with rsync and all the needed libs inside (and not much else). We're using rsync over ssh to send the files into this chrooted session. The rsync binary in the chrooted session is SUID root so that it can create the files with the correct UID/GID. When the following is run, it creates all the files as root.staff, not

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
