Hi!:) - try using the sudo command as a prefix to all of that. I know that if I didn't do that it would default to nobody.nobody when I copied. -Tito > > Hi All, > I recently installed Rsync to perform backup features - this > includes backing up a /home dir and keeping ownerships/permissions > intact is obviously very important.... > > However when I perform.

Approximated petitioner: Perhaps this will help. SunOS 5.7 Last change: 25 Jan 2002 5 User Commands rsync(1) -C, --cvs-exclude auto ignore files in the same way CVS does --existing only update files that already exist --ignore-existing ignore files that already exist

I have a similar problem with rsync, though it's not consistent. sometimes, things just don't come over, and sometimes, things just don't get deleted. Repeated runs usually correct it. If it's the case of a directory being replaced with a non-directory, you'll have to add "--force" to get it to happen. Hope it helps. Tim Conway tim.conway@philips.com

Whoops, I apologize for the off topic e-nail. I meant to write a reply but I mixed up my messages to the various listservers I'm subscribed to. I'll remember to check my address next time. I've found a new way to run Rsync, it works pretty well, and involves a disk image mounted on a server that's created with Disk Copy. It serves our purpose pretty well for what we're doing

rsync has already explained it to you, in the error message. both the list of usernames and passwords for everybody, and your file containing the password you want to use, are world-readable. The rsync.secrets file should be readable only by root, and the .rsyncpw file should be readable only by simpson. This is all well documented:

Unless told otherwise, rsync uses rsh to contact the remote system.=20 Another popular option is ssh. Both of these protocols use the logged-in=20 username, unless specified otherwise. What rsync really does is "rsh=20 remotehost rsync --server-and-other-undocumented-options". If you can't=20 "rsh server rsync --version", rsync won't work with rsh. Same with ssh. I

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

The "-a" option (the "--links", "--perms", "--devices", and "--times" options are redundant, as they, as well as "--owner", "--group", and "--recursive" are implied by "-a" )does dictate that permissions on files being sent be brought over from the source. Are all files losing permissions, or only files

I wouldn't worry about users reading each others files, either, if you give each his own module, password-protected.

First, an item to fix: the substitution of "-P" for "-p". All good operating systems are case-sensitive, and many utilities, ssh included, are case sensitive about their options. "-P" is passed along with the "-p" to signal that the next parameter is the passphrase, to enable passphrase setting directly in the commandline. If that's wrong,

Gouri: close. Try "Ssh-keygen -p -P ''". You might argue that ssh should guess that -P imlplies -p, but that's an issue for your ssh maintainer. Also: you don't ordinarily distribute the private key. You need the PUBLIC key in $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys on any system you want to access with the private key. Maybe i'm seing your application backward, and you

Tim, I reported a protocol data stream error on 9/8/2002 Deatils are in my postes at that time rsync still fails everytime I run it. This time I added three v's as you just suggested and rsync just hung with two tasks in execution thus: root 3178 0.1 0.9 1796 868 pts/1 S 09:57 0:00 /usr/bin/rsync -vvva --delete --exclude=root/snapsh root 3179 0.0 0.6 1628 632 pts/1

If it's anything like the rooms I saw last year...some rooms have "wardrobes" meaning that you have a unit with a shelf, a "closet" cabinet type thing, and about 5 drawers. If you have lots of clothes, bring extra storage containers because thos drawers can't really hold much. Or don't bring so many clothes:) I think some of the two room doubles have huge-ass floor

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

the --pasword-file= option is only for passing a password to a rsync server, as you have set up with the rsync --daemon process. Your rsyncd.conf file is fine, too. The problem is that you aren't calling your rsync daemon from your commandline. You are trying to connect via rsync to host as axlink and start a 'rsync --sender' process, to transfer data within the ssh process.

When rsyncing over ssh my retrieval will pooch out when there's an iso image introduced. I'm not terribly interested in monitoring files and don't care much if I do download these. Is there something I'm missing to allow files of this size to transfer??? Steve Mallett

Hi!!!!!! There is one programming consideration which need to be programmed in RSYNC for Windows.. PROBLEM ------------ Whenever Rsync is installed as service on Windows Platform, the rsync application gets terminated while logging off the server. POSSIBLE SOLUTION ------------------------- An Event Handler should be added in Rsync for windows binaries.....: following is the explanation for
