similar to: Rsync on window NT

What should be the official behaviour here? I must admit some of my scripts probably have both trailing and non-trailing "/". But just played around until it was mirroring into the correct directory.

Can anyone help me with rsync. I'm trying to set up rsync on a windows nt 4.0 box so i can do off site backup with linux. I followed the instruction from rsync.samba.org and i have rsync working on windows nt. when i tried to use rsync with linux to connect to the windows box i get a error invalid module. Is there anything i can do to get rsync to work so i can do off site backup. thanks

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,

That's actually a very good suggestion. First I figured that in this way files changed within the hour after creation would be ignored, but they probably represent a very small minority anyway. On the other hand, this does not really rectify the situation, but will allow us to postpone the real sync again until, let's say a holiday, where we have plenty of time to sync. Rgds, Bart

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

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

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

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

HI, I'm transferring a huge gzip file approximately 6GB over the WAN. I was wondering if there is a way which I can initiate a multi-threaded(multi-connection) rsync for transferring one gzip file? Could someone kindly show me how it should be done? Thanks.

You're obviously not the first to need this. That's why the '--bwlimit=' option was added. Set it to however many Kbps you want rsync to use. I usually use 768 going over our wan, to spare some bandwidth on the T1, and maybe 10000 over the lan (in my case, all the dasd is nfs). I suspect that it may affect local-to-local transfers as well, but haven't tested it, but

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

I was seeing rsync errors which caused my system installations to fail repeatedly and absolutely. See the error I reported to this mailing list back in June in the Forwarded Message below. When I replaced my NIC cards (realtec chip, 8139too driver) with Linksys cards (and Dec Tulip driver for linux) the problem ceased, rsync worked like it should, and does so repeatedly. My suggestion would be
