similar to: Rsync doing nothing and no error message

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

hello, I'm new with rsync (shame on me ignoring this great tool for many years!) For the following question I could not get an answer from the docs: Is it possible to run rsync in a force mode like `cp -f? for overwriting files without write permission? I need this for a local rsync. What I'm actually doing is to run `find . -type f -perm u-w -exec chmod u+w {} \;? on the destination

Hi, I got stuck within some weird prob concerning my 2-node linux cluster and the synchronisation tool at hand (rsync-2.5.1pre1). I have to copy a structure of 70 directories where the data of these directories are hardlinked to the data of the 1st directory. Within this "orig data" directory, I have about 30.000 files, so the amount of files to sync is approx. 2.100.000. The

Hi there, is it possible to use regular expressions in the exclude-paramter of rsync ? For example: rsync --exclude "/path/to/*/[Ff][Oo][Ll][Dd][Ee][Rr]" I've tried it, but it will take no effect. -- SET THE CONTROLS FOR THE HEART OF THE SUN Jens

I feel completely stupid for asking this question, but I have an essential problem of getting the syntax right for synchronizing multiple files. I am trying to use rsync to synchronize files generated in one directory with our public directory our web server. We have a number of files with the extension html so I have tried the following command line: rsync *.html

I'm interested in the *best* way to set particular permissions on the machine I am rsync'ing content to. These are the specifics of our setup: 1 client pushes to remote 2 remote machine = AIX running rsync daemon as chroot 3 client machine = NT running CYGWIN 4 directory tree on client has many files/directories with many differnt permissions/owners etc. 5 We wish ALL the

Dear community, I'm trying to install R-2.2.1 on an IRIX 6.2 (Unix System V Release 4) system without root access. Unfortunately readline is not installed in default, so I installed it locally in my home directory, more precisely in: $HOME/vol/readline-5.1, where $HOME is "/home3/fa/faga001". Afterwards I appended the path to the library with several $PATH variable, which now looks

Hi, I have a rsync server set up. Can i push data from the server to another machine instead of pulling data from that machine. when i try to do that i get this error. mkdir tohost:/tmp ; No such file or directory. But the directory exists. This is the command i executed. rsync -avz --rsync-path=/usr/bin/rsync fromhost::test tohost:/tmp This works fine if iam logged onto "tohost"

Here is the structure of my servers : Source : /home/test1/link_dir sub_dir1 file1 file2 ... sub_dir2 ... Destination: /home/test2/real_dir sub_dir1 file1 file2 ... subdir2

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?

Sir, How to run the rsync server in the remote machine. I want to mirror the set of directories from one machine to another machine which are in the network.

Hi all, I already searched for this error on google and nothing I never install dovecot, this is a first time. This error, I know, is too newbie and stupid, but I checked more than twice. root at server:/usr/local/etc/dovecot # sievec /home3/virtual/default.sieve doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf line 7: Unknown setting: ssl

I am sure this is not a problem, but more of a "can we do this" question. We are using Samba Version 2.0.6 and my problem is this: We have one Samba server for a site, we NFS mount filesystems from various other machines to the Samba server, we then create a directory on the Samba server and then create links under that directory to each of the mounted filesystems we want to share.

I am having problems getting the latest CVS right now. A cvs checkout asterisk -t gets to this part and sits forever: S-> server_register(fpm-world-mix.mp3, 1.1, , , , , ) S-> Register(fpm-world-mix.mp3, 1.1, , , ) Anyone know how I can just skip the file?

Hi, First question: "/module" is mapped to a special file that reads a kernel module passed in by the bootloader. Much like GRUB, kiwi's bootloader loads a kernel and can load one or more extra files into memory. These are passed to the kernel. The horizon kernel expects one file, which it makes accessible at "/module". This should be set up to be whatever you set

Hi James, Thanks again for bearing with me, you have been very helpful. I have got the problem fixed. In fact I needed to override the 'LSeek' implementation of SpecialFile in SpecialModule class as well. The log for the working example is attached, just as a reference. Now one more thing, when the build system creates the ISO9660 CD-ROM Image, it executes the following commands:
