rsh gives a reduced environment. if rsync on ApplServ isn't in /bin or /usr/bin, that's probably your problem. It's such a common problem that somebody added the "--rsync-path=" option for just such needs. In my case, i have rsync in /cadappl/encap/bin (symlinked into /cadappl/encap/packages/rsync.something/bin). It's in my path, but not the base system path given

The "-a" option (the "--links", "--perms", "--devices", and "--times" options are redundant, as they, as well as "--owner", "--group", and "--recursive" are implied by "-a" )does dictate that permissions on files being sent be brought over from the source.

it's in syscall.c, not generator.c You'll have to save the status of the lstat, modify the mode in st, and return the lstat status.

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

Gouri: close. Try "Ssh-keygen -p -P ''". You might argue that ssh should guess that -P imlplies -p, but that's an issue for your ssh maintainer. Also: you don't ordinarily distribute the private key. You need the PUBLIC key in $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys on any system you want to access with the private key. Maybe i'm seing your application backward, and you

the --pasword-file= option is only for passing a password to a rsync server, as you have set up with the rsync --daemon process. Your rsyncd.conf file is fine, too. The problem is that you aren't calling your rsync daemon from your commandline. You are trying to connect via rsync to host as axlink and start a 'rsync --sender' process, to transfer data within the ssh process.

There's nothing in rsync to do that. How about making the files and directories all belong to another user, set the sticky bit and write for your rsync user on the directories, unset write for the files, and rsync that way, then chown afterwards? the updates to existing files will fail, leaving you only with new.

There's a program to apply patches, typically called "patch" Try "man patch". If your system doesn't have, and can't get patch, just read the patches and edit the appropriate files by hand. It's not particularly difficult. Incidentally, I want to point out that there's no good reason to cc rsync-admin@lists.samba.org on a regular post. I've been

You're obviously not the first to need this. That's why the '--bwlimit=' option was added. Set it to however many Kbps you want rsync to use. I usually use 768 going over our wan, to spare some bandwidth on the T1, and maybe 10000 over the lan (in my case, all the dasd is nfs). I suspect that it may affect local-to-local transfers as well, but haven't tested it, but

I wouldn't worry about users reading each others files, either, if you give each his own module, password-protected.

Oh. Now i feel like an *enlightened* idiot. I 've always thought of a checksum, crc, or whatever as giving 1/2^^length certainty, and I have a sense that that knowing the file length adds another amount of certainty, though I can't quantify that. I just know that if the size doesn't match, the checksum doesn't matter. I'd never considered the implications of the

Wang: I take it you mean that your mail bounced. Your domain is probably in the RBL or something. The commandline you give is an attempt to contact a rsyncd server. That means that the server you're contacting would have /etc/rsyncd.conf, and either an appropriate entry in /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf, or would be started manually with "rsync --daemon". I'm guessing
