Hi all. I'm getting the following error when using rsync: nice -n 20 rsync -e "ssh -p30000" --recursive --verbose --verbose --checksum --times --modify-window 2 --port=31000 --dry-run /cygdrive/f/bkp/Doc/Builds/Buildsheets/ MYUSERNAME@MY.SERV.ER.IP:TESTDIR opening connection using ssh -p30000 -l MYUSERNAME MY.SERV.ER.IP rsync --server -vvntrc --modify-window=2 .

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?

Has anybody out there set up a rsync environment that allows mirroring of files between two Windows 2000 servers? Douglas Hornyak Senior Systems Architect Spring Lake Consulting, LLC

Hi. As the man page explains, and this message http://www.mail-archive.com/rsync@lists.samba.org/msg04069.html summarizes from the different man pages rsync will not use the password file if it is world readable. Now, if the rsync team was so kind to add the "strict mode" option for the cygwin platform to ignore if the file is world readable when running in daemon mode why

Is anyone successfully using the Cygwin rsync on Win2k (or NT4) as both daemon and client, with --delete-after working on the client? I can get --delete to work, but I'd prefer to delete files only on a successful transfer, to ensure that the end-user has a working collection of files, no matter what release. For some reason, --delete-after does nothing for me, even as administrator on the

Hi, all. This is my first post to the list, so please forgive me if this is an old issue. I scoured the mailing list archives by hand and could find no mention of it, and the official FAQ-o-matic mentions it, but doesn't offer a fix that works for me. I've set up an rsync daemon on Windows NT4 by installing the latest cygwin. Using the cygwin1.dll and rsync.exe, I'm able to connect

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

Hi all, I have started the rsync in deamon mode. When I use the following command: rsync --port 9876 u018::treeA it seems to work fine but no files are copied from the server. Using rsync without the deamon works fine. I tried to debug it a little bit, but I am unable to figure out what's wrong. 337:david@u050 /export/treeA> rsync -r -vvv --port 9876 u018::treeA opening tcp

Is there a way to preserve the owner and group permissions without having root access? Well, this is not possible on the filesystem level of course, but what about storing the owner/group information in a supplementary file that can be read by rsync to later reconstruct this information? I'm using rsync to perform a server-to-server backup of a machine's hard drive. If the hard drive

I've got an rsyncd.secrets file with 59 accounts in it. Almost all these need to be enabled concurrently. My rsyncd.conf thus has an auth users field with upward of 50 values. I'm starting to wonder at what point I'll have maxed that field out, especially as we're taking on new accounts all the time. Incidentally, whether or not there is a limit, is it possible to do some

Hi all. I'm writing an installation script that uses Cygwin's bash.exe to launch an rsync.exe process, which is passed arguments. This performs an rsync over the Internet. I'd like to capture stdout to one file, and stderr to another, so that I can have a clean log of any errors. However, rsync.exe's use of file descriptors isn't jiving with my understanding of them. If I

Hi All, I recently installed Rsync to perform backup features - this includes backing up a /home dir and keeping ownerships/permissions intact is obviously very important.... However when I perform. (current working path is /home) rsync -azv --progress --stats * andrew@192.168.0.2::tmp/home and on the server side of things... I have it setup like so - motd file = /etc/rsyncd.motd

I am transferring some files from a RH7.0 machine to a RH7.2 machine as root with a cron job, using the following: rsync -avt /home homeserver::home rsync -avt /etc homeserver::etc Some of the files transfer OK, but I get: building file list ... done failed to set permissions on home : Operation not permitted home/brad/ home/ftp/bin/ home/ftp/etc/ home/ftp/pub/ home/rsyncuser/ failed to set

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 All, We have clients which dynamic IPs which we have setup with <host>.dyndns.org addresses. We have added these to the rsync.conf 'hosts allow=" but they are being denied access.. Is there anyway around this? Matt
