similar to: Anonymous rsync server on LAN

Is anyone else concerned about the fact that rsync doesn't guarantee to produce identical file copies on the the target machine? Don't get me wrong in sounding critical because I think that rsync is a great example of how software should be written. (I often make the observation, as I learn more about Linux, and inevitably find myself comparing open source applications to Microsoft

The first time a Word or Excel file is opened, i.e., when either Word or Excel have not been actively running "recently" (like, say for several minutes or more), the time it takes to start the application and load the file seem inordinately long. Once the first evolution is complete, files open more-or-less instantly if I close the first document but leave either app running (but

I have a 29 Gig full backup on a remote server (lets call if fedor) that is called Kbup_1. I have a 1.3 Gig incremental backup on my local server. I have rsync 2.6.2 on both servers. Both are RedHat Linux 9.1 on i-686 hardware platforms. I issue the command "time rsync -avv --rsh=rsh --stats /test/Kibbutz/Kbup_1 fedor://test/Kibbutz". The synch takes ~5 minutes of real time and about

I have a bit of an issue with rsync. I am using to keep directories in sync via another server for backup. Here is the server config [w1] path = /w1 comment = w1 web dir [w2] path = /w2 comment = w2 web dir Now on the client i run this command rsync -avv --delete --force domain.com::w1/ /w1/ It will NOT delete anything that is no on the server anymore.. for example on the server/client there

Hi, we do a 1:1 backup from our main raid to a backup raid every night with rsync -a --delete /mnt/raid1/ /mnt/raid2 rsync is 3.09, filesystems are ext3, OS is SLES 11 SP1. The rsync process takes several hours, even if no file has changed at all. Using -vv I see that rsync compares all files every time and that takes long for some hundreds of millions of small files. Can I tell rsync it

Hello, I'm totally new to this list, so I hope I don't break all the rules. :) I've looked through the archives (and google), and I really can't find the answer to my question. I'm trying out the 'detect-renamed'-patch, and I've encountered some odd behavior. I've applied the patch to both rsync-2.6.9 and rsync-3.0.0pre7, and it's the same behavior.

Yo, Currently if you build rsync and you don't have rsync installed, make test will fail because some tests reference the rsync binary directly (instead of using the $RSYNC variable). I cannot find anything which refers to this problem in the mail archives or CVS logs. Below is a patch which fixes this problem. (please CC: me, I'm not subscribed. Thanks.) -- Geoff. --------------

Why does using --delete -b --backup-dir relative/path puts the deleted files in the target folder, while using the full path works as expected? my experimentation... root@feral:/tmp/test (0)>uname -a Linux feral 2.4.22-1.2115.nptlsmp #1 SMP Wed Oct 29 15:30:09 EST 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux root@feral:/tmp/test (0)>rsync --version rsync version 2.5.6 protocol version 26

1) I'm a developer. 2) I use one special machine as a CVS server, generic storage ( an electronic attic ), as a web server of online documentation ( such as the python documentation, or SGI STL docs ). 3) I would like to add a hard drive to that system that mirrors the system drive. Someone suggested that I use rsync for this purpose. Called by a cron job that starts at 2:00am. I also want to

hi. I know this is a big topic on the list, please forgive me. rsync -avv --include "/film/jonah/**/sourceimages/*.tif" --exclude "*" /film /tmp i'm trying to copy all *.tif 's that are in a */sourceimages/ directory and that are only under /film/jonah. i would like to copy the directory tree and tif files to /tmp i was able to copy ever tif with: rsync -a

I must be seriously misunderstanding the man page coverage of --compre-dest. My take was that if a file in compare-dest=dir matches a file in SOURCE/ then it won't be transferred to DEST/. I tried this test. (d1 has single files and 2 subdir with files) cp -a d1 d1a mkdir d2 rsync -avv --compare-dest="./d1a" d1/ d2/ d1a is carbon copy of d1 but still every last file in

A: do you have a "hosts allow" or "hosts deny" in rsyncd.conf? B: what version are you using? It seems i've seen messages about rsyncd in some versions refusing to allow unresolvable names in. C: Are you able to access the rsyncd, and just wonder about the log entries, or are you unable to get in? If it's just a log complaint, I wouldn't worry about it. Most

I've read a few tutorials about how to use rsync via ssh using the command= functionality to restrict where the user can sync to. I've got this on the on the destination side in it's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys... command="rsync --server -vvnlogDtpre.iLsf --timeout=999 . bkp",no-port-forwarding,no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding ssh-rsa AAetc I've tried variations of the

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Recent versions of rsync have a "regression test" called "chmod-option" that when run fails, this should be causing rsync to be rejected as broken by all distros and sysadmins. A bit of research show that no one has mentioned this test since it was last worked on in late September, nor does it show up as a current bug
