similar to: RSYNC for Windows

Please enlightnen me on a subject, which is easily explained by example (cyberone is a Cygwin1.3.12/WinXPpro and cyberx is a FreeBSD with latest openssh-portable installed): lapo at CYBERONE ~ $ scp lapo at cyberx:Luth\'ol.pcg . bash: -c: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `'' bash: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file lapo at CYBERONE ~ $ scp lapo at

Has anyone else experienced high CPU usage when using RSYNC in windows 2000 server? I am using the rsync.exe (and applicable DLL's) from the cygwin installation (I am not however running cygwin on this machine). The linux machine connecting to the windows rsync daemon has a very low performance hit when the session is running (see below). However, the windows machine, which has a much

For a recent project I needed to run Rsync as a service on Windows NT. The following is a link to the instructions I created to recreate my steps. http://members.home.net/cbollerud2/projects/rsync/NTService.html The "no-fork" patch used here is very similar to the "no-detach" option mentioned in many previous posts. I wish I could take credit for it, but I basically put

[I am responding on the cygwin list to a message on cygwin-announce and cc'ing to the rsync list.] From: "Lapo Luchini" <lapo@lapo.it> > I have uploaded version 2.5.2-1 of the open source utility that > provides fast incremental file transfer. > > ChangeLog as on http://rsync.samba.org : Rsync 2.5.2 has a data-destroying bug as described here:

Can you tell me a place to download RSYNC 2.5.2 for Windows Nt and the documentation?. Thanks.

Help ! I am running rsync as a service on w2k successfully using the patch from http://v.iki.fi/~vherva/cygwin-rsync/ I would like to connect to the windows machine from Linux, to automatically backup the windows machine without user intervention. I understand that there are network problems using the native rsync transport under windows. How do I setup ssh with a w2k server? I have the ssh

We need to encrypt files before transferring them to the destination Host for security reasons. Encryption must be strong: IDEA, 3DES or similar. One way would be the integration of PGP into rsync. Is there any PGP integration into rsync available ? Thank?s Clemens

Hi, folks. I've been quite concerned about Open Source and the recent FSF compromise. I realize that FSF does not seem to have rsync, but prudence would dictate that I check other sources as well. Could someone please e-mail the public key for rsync to the list or to me directly? rsync-2.5.6.tar.gz rsync-2.5.6.tar.gz.sig I seem to be having a spot of trouble getting to any public

What is the general recommendation for compression when using ssh? Is it a wasteful performance hit to have both ssh and rsync do compression (when using rsync over ssh)? If so, is there a clear prefference which is more efficient, rsync or ssh? Brian K. White -- brian@aljex.com -- http://www.aljex.com/bkw/

Hi, I'm trying to use rsync to backup a linux filesystem to a windows server. I followed the hints that I found at http://www.tiarnan.phlegethon.org/rsyncntdoc.html to run rsync on windows, and it works quite well. The only problem I found is that windows is not able to backup linux special files (/dev/*). I don't know if the problem is in the way rsync has been compiled, or simply in

Hi there, I'm playing arround with rsync under W2K in conjunction with the cygwin environment. What I want is to get rsync copy a folder tree from one W2K machine to another W2K machine through a firewall. I installed the cygwin on both machines and got the rsync running which is using an openssh connection with public key authentication. Everything works fine except for the assignment of

I am attempting to use rsync to "mirror" data between several windows 2000 and windows XP systems. I am a UNIX person by nature, so decided the easiest way to go about doing this would be to use Cygwin with cron and ssh running as services, then run the rsync connection nightly through cron. Cygwin is installed on both systems and works perfectly. OpenSSH is installed and running,

Hi there, I have a problem syncronizing a windows machine with a linux box. I want to backup the "My Documents" folder. Therefore I burned the data on a cdrom because the windows pc is only connected over a slow wan connection to the linux box. When I copy the data to the users home directory (using samba and another windows pc) and run the rsync program all the files are copied once

Hi to all on the Rsync mailing list. I noticed some posts back on the 25th September about my Rsync page (http://www.gaztronics.net/rsync.php). There were questions regarding it's suitability, why it was there, etc, and how I did not conform to the GPL. I have since sought advice from the Rsync administrators, who have advised me with regards to the GPL, etc. The page has been updated

Each time I send a message to the ML I receive this message... (thi mislead me to double-post some days ago). Could someone please unsubscribe the "blocked" address?

Is there any plan to do it? Is it maybe already in and just not documented? -- Lapo 'Raist' Luchini lapo@lapo.it (PGP & X.509 keys available) http://www.lapo.it (ICQ UIN: 529796)

Uhm... rsync developers: what do you think about changing the default modify-window in the Cygwin platform? It seems to me that many problems people have are just because of the granularity of timestamp. Maybe changing the default could be the best choice. That would be documented in the "man" and in my release announcement on cygwni-annouce, of course. Just an idea, maybe it's

I have 5 windows workstations and 1 computer running freebsd 4.4 I want to install rsync on the freebsd computer so I can use it to backup some files/documents on my windows workstations. I want rsync to run automatically every 6pm mon-sat. I wanna ask if there is someone in this list who can give me guidelines on how i can do this. And another question I have is do I need to install samba? i

People of cygwin & rsync, I recently attempted to get cygwin and rsync working to solve a backup/mirroring need in my computer life. Well, as you might guess, I ran into a little but of trouble. Strangely enough, rsync seemed to be regularly hanging when I attempted to do a "get" (sycronize a remote to a local dir). Well, considering I want to automate this, that was not going
