When rsync starts I get the following messages in my log file Jan 11 11:00:04 WEB1 rsyncd[31281]: rsync: bind failed on port 873 Jan 11 11:00:04 WEB1 rsyncd[31281]: rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at socket.c(361) Anybody know what might be causing this? David

I'm running FreeBSD 4.6.2 on two different machines. Both machines have rync installed by way of the ports library, but one of them is running it as a server. I followed the directions in the man pages for running the server using inetd. Here is what happens: rsync rsync://myusername@10.0.0.8/ rsync: server sent "rysnc version 2.5.5 protocol version 26" rather than

I use FreeBSD RELENG_4 with rsync version 2.5.4 protocol version 26 Copyright (C) 1996-2002 by Andrew Tridgell and others <http://rsync.samba.org/> Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, symlinks, batchfiles, IPv6, 32-bit system inums, 64-bit internal inums and when I try to transfer file I get rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (5994 bytes read so

I have so far been unable to get rsync to work properly in a test setup. Does anyone have any ideas? Both PCs are running RedHat 7.2. The Server: IP Address 192.168.0.202 Server Name: RH72TB hosts.allow ALL: 192.168.0.201 rsyncd.conf: [testmodule] path = /tmp The Client: IP Address 192.168.0.201 hosts file: 192.168.0.202 RH72TB I have run "rsync --daemon" on the server.

This is my first post so first of all I will say hello to everyone. I have rsync configured and working properly on my local network however when I try to connect from a remote host (one located in a different state) the connection times out. I was wondering if there was another way to set the timeout besides in the rsyncd.conf file? As I said the connection works fine on the internal lan, but

I am having some problems getting rsync working. No files get copied, although the server HD light DOES come on for about a second when I run the client rsync command. The /etc/rsyncd.conf on the server: ============================== uid = root gid = root log = /var/log/rsync.log read only = no [email] # Email data files from /var/spool/mail on Proxy (192.168.0.100) path = /home/databackup/

I have Rsync working ok, backing up some server directories onto another server each evening. If I do an rsync back up of a directory - called "test", for example - and in the "test" directory there is a file called "testfile", it gets backed up OK. However, if that file, "testfile" gets deleted from the original "test" directory, when I run

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

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

Here is a newbie question. Hope, you will not mind. I am trying to backup a file from my NT machine onto AIX machine. Here is the setup: NT machine (testor): rsync is in c:\Rsync\rsync.exe and is running as a daemon. (I created a service for Rsync first). AIX machine (admx): rsync -v rsync version 2.3.1 Copyright Andrew Tridgell and Paul Mackerras admx::nkapoor> telnet testor 873 Trying...

Hi, I got the following error synchronising between to servers : 2002/07/04 20:58:39 [68722] transfer interrupted (code 12) at token.c(255) Between other servers rsync is OK without any error. Is it a know bug ? I can't easily upgrade rsync because it's running on a server running 24h/24h 7/7. So before upgrading I need elements to explain the problem which occurs. Thank's for your

Hi guys, I have a simple question regarding using rsync when one has read-only files on the src machine. My situation is the following: I have two machines, call then A and B. I'm using rsync on B to download from A (I'm running rsync in daemon mode on A from inetd.conf). The rsyncing on B works fine except for one problem: when I run rsync on B to do the downloading from A, I get

rsync processes hang and client failing on "max connections", I can't kill rsync process. The temporary work around are: increase max connections in /etc/rsyncd.conf or reboot the server ! The client get this error: @ERROR: max connections (6) reached - try again later $ ps -aux | grep rsync admin 30408 0.0 0.0 1696 232 ? S Mar26 0:00 [rsync] admin 28121 0.0

Your users have rsh access to the machine, and are getting wherever they want, using the server:/path syntax. if they were using the server::module syntax, they would be restricted to only what's provided by the modules. If you don't want them getting everything all over the system, you will need to prevent shell access. Tim Conway conway.tim@sphlihp.com reorder name and reverse

Mermgfurt ! I have some problem with syncing two machines which are connected over a Gigabit-connection. I'm trying to use rsync with ssh because of the authorisation mechanisms (keys). It starts quite ok with 18 MB/s (this small speed may have something to do with our internal net) and falls down to 400 KB/s (!!!). This happens over a long period because those files I want to copy are very

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
