similar to: rsync raising an IO error for an excluded file

I came up with a patch to fix the problem of IO Errors caused by excluded files as did Eugene V. Chupriyanov below. Is there a chance that this change will show up in a future version of rsync? Is there a reason that we should not ignore IO errors when copy_links is off? Just want to make sure that I'm not missing something here that may corrupt my syncs.... Here's the version that

Dear friends! I really appriciate the great job you did on rsync package and hope for its further improvement and development. It works great in our pretty complex environment and helps us a lot in our daily duties. But we've run into couple of small inconveniences. First one: We use rsyncd to propagate a tree of html files among several web-servers. That files are generated on the fly and

Using rsync 2.6.0 with --verbose and doing a pull. >?receiving file list ... readlink "{FILENAME}" failed: >?No such file or directory >?done >?IO error encountered - skipping file deletion The file was a temporary file that was being deleted just as the rsync was run. So while the file list was being built, it was there when the directory was read but had vanished by the

Hi, The problem I found is not in what rsync, but on the error handling: How to reproduce: On server side I setup a tree and share using rsync + xinetd, of course, for security reason I use chroot option. Now I push this symlink: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 nov 10 16:28 horsroot -> /bin/ Now I try to do: ./rsync -avPH --copy-unsafe-links draco::test/ /tmp/rsyncdest/ (Of course the

Is there anyway to keep rsync from reporting an error when attempting to sync pagefile.sys (through a samba share)? It seems like any type of exclusion of the file gets ignored, why is that? Anyway around it? Also, of experimented with the exclude-from syntax quite a bit and haven't figure out how you could just backup all .doc files on a file system and exclude everything else. Thanks - Max

Hi What if you have sysv signals (i.e. signal is restored when handler is called) and child process exits here? Zombie will be left, because SIGCHLD is ignored at that point. Shouldn't signal be before waitpid? Mikulas static void main_sigchld_handler(int sig) { int save_errno = errno; pid_t pid; int status; while ((pid = waitpid(-1, &status, WNOHANG))

HP-UX 11 is looping on SIGCHLD/sigchld_handler2() when exiting a protocol 2 session apparently because we don't call wait before reinstalling the handler. Any thoughts on this issue or how to address it? serverloop.c from latest snapshots: void sigchld_handler2(int sig) { int save_errno = errno; debug("Received SIGCHLD."); child_terminated = 1; signal(SIGCHLD,

Can I get people from other platforms to test the waitpid.patch to see if it solves hang-on-exit on their platform? I can confirm Solaris at this moment (but I've not done heavy testing at this moment) that is works like a charm (Solaris 7). It handles 'sleep 90&' vs 'nohup sleep 90&' correctly (killed, vs left). thanks. - Ben ---------- Forwarded message

This is the LAST version I plan on doing.. If I hear no feed back good or bad. Then I'll assume I've wasted my time on a feature that people whine about but don't care to try. This is against 3.0.2pX so it should be VERY easy for anyone to test. - Ben diff -ur openssh-3.0.2p1/misc.c openssh/misc.c --- openssh-3.0.2p1/misc.c Tue Jul 3 23:46:58 2001 +++ openssh/misc.c Wed Feb 6

How can i open a virtual disk in read-write mode ? # guestmount --rw -d winxp -m /dev/sda1 /media/ # rm -f /media/pagefile.sys rm: cannot remove ?/media/pagefile.sys?: Operation not permitted # cd /media && touch file touch: cannot touch ?file?: Permission denied # cd && fusermount -u /media I've tried with guestfish also. I have compiled libguestfs with this conf:

It appears that openssh has inherited the dos attack that ssh is susceptible to. This has been discussed on Bugtraq (see http://securityportal.com/list-archive/bugtraq/1999/Sep/0124.html for the thread). There does not appear to be an official for ssh. Attached below is a simple, proof of concept, patch that adds a MaxConnections to sshd_config that sets the maximum number of simultaneous

In order to run some performance tests on optimization tools, I want to be able to avoid the use of swap memory. In *nix systems, at least Linux ones, I can issue a 'sudo swapoff -a' command and use just the RAM available. If I don't do this, at some point swap will be used, the disk goes ballistic and the machine is unresponsive because it is thrashing data to the swap. I

Dear Developers: I have a question about memory management in R 2.2.1 and am wondering if you would be kind enough to help me understand what is going on. (It has been a few years since I have done software development on Windows, so I apologize in advance if these are easy questions.) ------------- MY SYSTEM ------------- I am currently using R (version 2.2.1) on a PC running Windows 2000

Hi, I have just installed Samba 2.0.6 and noticed that the "pagefile.sys" smbmount bug still exists: When unsing smbmount to mount an NT4 volume, and doing an "ls" on the mounted directory, I get: # ls /mnt ls: pagefile.sys: Permission denied . IO.SYS SRVMGR.EXE ffastun.ffa summary.dat .. KBROWSER

Hello, In our office we would like to do something like "memory overcommitment" or rather "dynamic allocation" for a bunch of windows domUs (server 2003 & 2008). We thought this should be a simple feature, however we did not find any fitting solution. We use Xen 4.2.1 with xl toolstack. The idea is to use ballooning to dynamically (and automatically) change physical

Hi, I've got a problem reading certain files from NT workstation 4 shares. The main problem seems to be pagefile.sys, but it sometimes happens with registry files as well. What happens is, that the 'pagefile.sys' NT swap files cannot be accessed. Any attempt at using ls on it or anything else fails. For example: # ls pagefile.sys /bin/ls: pagefile.sys: Text file busy The file is

Hello, samba-users, I am using Amanda to backup WinNT-shares. Amanda uses smbclient to generate smbtar-archives which it then writes to tape. As you all know there are various files on Windows-system-partitions that don?t need to be on backup. For example stuff like pagefile.sys System Volume Information hiberfil.sys and the registry files. So there is a need to exclude files from getting

Here are some patches to re-enable support for AIX's authenticate routines. With them, ssh will honor locked & unlocked accounts, record successful and unsuccessful logins, and deny accounts that are prohibited to log in via the network. Tested with AIX 4.3. It also includes a fix for handling SIGCHLD that may be needed for other platforms (HP-UX 10.20, for example). If I get the time
