Greetings, Has anyone successfully compiled rsync 2.5.5 under Mac OS X (not Server), and actually have it work fully? I'm in a position where I'm trying to setup an automated nightly remote backup between and Cobalt Raq4 (running a variant of Redhat Linux) and a Mac running OS X 10.1.5 with the latest development tools installed. As has been pointed out previously on the list, one has

I'm using dovecot 1.1.8 on a raq4 server running centos 4.8 Is it possible to set a time delay between all dovecot pop3-logins? say 20 - 30 seconds for example? My reason is I want to thwart the constant login attempts from hackers hunting for an open relay. It's no good blocking the ip address because every hack attempt comes in from a different address. I'm the only user on the

Dave- I've got the rsync daemon running as root, (setgroups() man page said that if setgroups wasn't called as root it would give an error message) and I've configured the ports correctly a la man page. I still get the error with setgroups. If it's a recently implemented security feature could I yank that section out of the code and recompile it again? I haven't had a chance to

I am enclosing a context diff of the changes that I made to get openssh working on UWIN. UWIN is a UNIX operating system layer that runs on Win32 systems. For more information on UWIN go to http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/. I also ran configure using -with-cppflags=-D_BSDCOMP=2. I don't know where that information would go with the source code. Let me know if you need more

Hi, the following patch eliminates a typo in bsd-misc.* which disallows building for Cygwin.

Hi, the SETGROUPS_NOOP define is used only for Cygwin. But it's also combined with the HAVE_SETGROUPS test in bsd-misc.c. So, since setgroups() exists and is functional in Cygwin, this is actually a noop in the more general sense. The below patch drops that entirely.

Hi... I have exactly the same problem with lsarpcd giving the error "ERROR: setgroups call failed!". Anyone know of a fix??

I've been trying to get my two Mac OS X computers to sync using rsync 2.5.5. I have one set up as the host with --daemon and the other with a client running. I was encountering an @ERROR: chroot failed error in my messages. I found that the problem lied in a misconfiguration of the rsyncd.conf file. I had tried to specify a POSIX pathway using the quoted foward-slash method. Once I got past

Hello Porters, I've finally (thanks to Wendy Palm of Cray) ported OpenSSH to Dynix v4.4.4. I had to make sure that "UseLogin" was set to "no" in the sshd_config file. Also, here are the old-style contextual diffs (obtained with 'diff -c' on the Dynix box) of the two files I had to change: *** configure Sat Jun 16 17:09:50 2001 --- configure.new Mon Oct 8

Ok, for those running NeXT and other platforms with broken/missing _POSIX_SAVED_ID please try this patch, and anyone that has spent any amount of time dealing with this problem. I believe it's right. BTW, this patch is no where near as big as it looks. The patch was done against an earily version of the tree which had an issue with white space. - Ben --- ../openssh/uidswap.c Sun Apr 22

Hello, I have been tracking down a cause for some abnormal CPU utilization with samba. It appears after looking at glance plus that samba is spending the majority of its time (like around 75-80%) doing lstat system calls. When I used tusc I discovered that it appears to be looking for a file /tmp/.winbindd which I am assuming is the unix domain socket for winbind. However this system is not

I found and tried this work around on the man page: https://www.unix.com/man-page/all/5/ngroups_max/ but I still get the same "Too many extra groups" error even when I start dovecot with the above program to limit the # of groups. I suspect that dovecot is adding a number of groups when it starts up. I've hacked a work around to get it working for me on my laptop: diff --git

Perhaps I can ask a slightly different question? Is there some kind of test I can do on a hung process so I can determine whether it's active or not, in a script? The output of strace is below but it doesn't mean much to me I'm afraid. Is there a straight forward difference between strace for a "real" connection and one of my hung ones that I can use to manually kill them?

Hello, I work in a development shop where we write code for both Linux and Windows, and develop on both OS's on a codebase stored on a Linux drive with Samba shares. Ever since I 'upgraded' my Windows 2000 system to service pack 3, I have been having trouble compiling my code with Visual Studio over this Samba connection. Basically what happens is that Visual Studio reports
