similar to: Regarding possible bug rsyncd.conf 2.5.5

Hello all, I've found some behavior in 2.5.5 that is contrary to the documentation in the man page. Specifically, I'm running an rsync server (i.e. from inetd with --daemon),and in the module definition I'm specifying the line "exclude nosyncdir". The documentation for rsyncd.conf indicates that this is exactly equivalent to using "--exclude nosyncdir" on the

Hello, I think i may have found a bug in the "max clients" option in rsyncd.conf [we use rsync-2.5.5; All platforms I tried (Irix-6.5.14 and various linux flavours) show the behaviour explained below] The manpage says: |max connections | The "max connections" option allows you to specify | the maximum number of simultaneous connections you | will allow to

And, I've found more. It turns out that even though the exclude directive is ignored for inbound data in rsyncd.conf, it is NOT ignored for the --delete option. I've seen this behavior occur when I've deleted a file from the sending side (client) that is inside a tree that's matched by the server-side (rsyncd) exclude directive. The deletion is ignored, as the documenation

I am running rsync version 2.6.4 protocol version 29 on HPUX 11.11. The same version of rsync is being used on both the source and destination sides. I am running rsync across an SSH connection. The remote rsync process does not seem to be locating, or even attempting to locate an rsyncd.conf file, in either /etc/rsyncd.conf or the cwd/pwd of the rsync process. On the client side I am running

Hello, If I disable reverse lookups and keep forward lookups enabled, access works as expected for fqdn entries in "hosts allow" that have only A records (ipv4) records but not for AAAA records (ipv6) when those hosts connect via ipv6. I get this error: @ERROR: access denied to opt from UNDETERMINED (2606:2800:220:1:248:1893:25c8:1946) # *cat /etc/rsyncd.conf*

Thought that you are able to add a simple - + with paths or file names at the bottom of a file and run an rsync and those are then recognized inclusions or exclusions from the synchronization -- Jason G Helfman Network Administrator BizRate.com 310.754.1264 desk

Hi all, Tripped over a documentation bug. I'm guessing the behavior I've found isn't a bug in itself as it's kind of implied by chroot (unless the /etc/passwd db is read *before* you do the chroot call), so I'm calling it a documentation bug. The Setup: System A: running rsync --daemon from xinetd, configured with a read-only share. System B: syncing a local directory

I have some rsync defined as a server on one of my production systems and use to to sync out various configuration files for services running on the box (dhcpd, dns named.conf files & the like). Both ends are Compaq Alpha/Tru64 5.1 systems running rsync 2.5.5. I'm having a fit trying to include certain files in specific subdirectories under the main path; one such example is below:

Hi, I have installed rsync on CentOS4, Installation went through ok and I tested it as well by copying a folder to mounted tap backup drive. But now I need to run rsync as daemon(server), trying to find /etc/rsyncd.conf file but there is no rsyncd.conf file exists under /etc directory. Having read online I found out that /etc/rsyncd.conf file needs to be manually created. Is there any sample

Hi All, I have installed rysnc-2.6.3 on my debian linux ( 2.2.20-idepci #1 Sat Apr 20 12:45:19 EST 2002 i686). While configuration it was successful and i installed it without any error.

I would like to specify an entry in /etc/rsyncd.conf such that it operates on a --one-file-system basis always. The path will point to a filesystem mount point, but there is another filesystem that is mounted in a subdirectory. I want to back up only those files in the pointed to filesystem, and not the one mounted within (in that run, anyway). I do not see such an option in man rsyncd.conf. Is

It seems to me that rsyncd.conf does not provide an option akin to rsync's --one-file-system command line argument. If that is true, it seems like a bug of ommission, as I now face a use case where I need it. Is there maybe some technical reason for the ommission? Thanks, -- Lester Hightower

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Only root can chown. If rsync isn't running as root then it ignores the --owner part of --archive. This also makes --numeric-ids inert. Simply put, if you aren't running as root then you can only create files owned by your UID. Rsync knows this. Rsync assumes that if you aren't root you didn't intend the --owner (or --group) part

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
