similar to: important caveat with Rsync on NT and dayligt savings time

Hi, Is there a network interface listen command for rsync so that for a system with multiple network cards and multiple IP addresses - rsync will only be visible on a defined interface and defined IPs? Like in samba?: e.g., bind interfaces only = True interfaces = eth0 193.xy.zz.aa 193.xy.zz.ab Can't seem to find such a thing in the documentation. Cheers, Lachlan.

Hi, Can anyone send me an example config file that makes use of ignore nonreadable timeout 600 When I try to put this in a module - rsync seems happy but it gets nasty logfile messages when a client connects to the server.

As root, I am trying to mirror a Redhat 7.3 Linux user area onto another Redhat 7.3 Linux box using rsync. This is using the following type of command: rsync -a -v --stats --safe-links However, rsync cannot mirror most of the user area because of the default permissions for the user areas. e.g., opendir(user1): Permission denied opendir(user2): Permission denied drwx------ 3 user1

Here is the problem. I have a primary and a secondary web server. I want to sync the home directory paths on the primary server with the secondary server. I am fairly ignorant to rsync and wondering what is the best method of doing this and how would I call the procedure from say a "perl script". Both Servers are FreeBSD 4.2 and there are actually two directorys I want to sync 1)

Hallo, i am verry sorry about my bad engllish. But i trie my best... I trie to setup an Backupserver. If i use this rsync -varpog -e ssh /home/www/web6 217.172.xxx.xxx:/home/www/web6 the Server is asking me fore Password. If i use this rsync -varpog -e ssh --stats /home/www/web6 217.172.xxx.xxx:/home/www/web6 --password-file=host1.pwd the Server is asking me too fore Passwort. How i can bring

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.

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

Is there any chance this can be added into the distribution as it sounds really nifty. Another suggestion unless I have read the following - would it be useful to have a command option in rsync to generate the file list by doing the "find" and outputting into a standard format? (As this would make it less OS specific or kludgy?) Cheers, Lachlan. At 16:06 19/11/01 -0500, you wrote:

There is a rather rambling tutorial at: http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/ccp14admin/rsync/ (this does not have ssh tunnelling in there) Though for the following - if the files are owned by root - root will be the only one able to rsync them across? Maybe creating a special account with some extra file privaledges but not 100% root could get the job done for you? Lachlan. > I need to set-up

I have a rsync server set up on a win2k server and a win xp pro computer is my client. It's working very well doing the anonymous transfers. However, I've tried setting up a password file and not having any success. rsyncd.conf on my server: use chroot = false strict modes = false hosts allow = * [serverbu] auth users = user path = c:/serverbu read only = no list = no secrets file =

Hi Some of our smaller Central London clients (5 to 25 terminals), who use the NetWare & GroupWise software from Novell Small Business Suite 6, are becoming increasingly concerned about the possibility of their offices becoming inaccessible for a prolonged period in the event of a terrorist attack. We've been asked to provide a low cost solution consisting of replicated offsite servers to

Howdy... I have been doing some reading of the rsync technical report, rsync man page, and the rsync web site, and I have learned allot, but having a high IQ does help. I have read the rsync, and rsyncd.conf man pages in regards to the switches, settings, etc., and summized that rsync is specifically designed for copying files between Unix kernel systems, regardless of flavor, platform, or

I need to distribute rsync (useable for both client and --daemon) on Win32. Distributing cygwin1.dll is, well you know, a bad idea. I took a shot at building under MingW but ran into an ugly looking error: > checking for socklen_t... no > checking for socklen_t equivalent... configure: error: Cannot find a > type to use in place of socklen_t I will pay $50 for a MingW build of latest

Howdy... I have searched the archives, and even read what has been posted on the site regarding a Win32 port of rsync. Though I have found a problem with everything. The URLs for building your own, or downloading the compiled binaries for the Win32 platform are no longer valid. Therein the problem lies, as the information is outdated, and still easily available on the site publicly. I

Does rsync has directory name length limit? I was trying to rsync a directory that has the name length of 34 characters and getting permission denied error. $ rsync -avz --delete --force -e ssh /usr/local/apache/htdocs 192.168.0.2:/usr/local/apache building file list ... readlink htdocs/CorporateLegalTimesEDITORIAL_files/cBug_blueXs.gif: Permission denied readlink

Hi, I have setup a cron job to rsync files between two servers every hour. 30 * * * * rsync -avz --delete rsyncsrv1::ftp/ /export/ftp/ This works fine most of the time, but if I have a very large file that needs to be transfered ( many tens of MBs), I run into a problem. Since the link between my two servers is slow, it can take more than an hour to complete the rsync transfer. So at the
