similar to: Patch to ignore exluded files.

Dear friends! I really appriciate the great job you did on rsync package and hope for its further improvement and development. It works great in our pretty complex environment and helps us a lot in our daily duties. But we've run into couple of small inconveniences. First one: We use rsyncd to propagate a tree of html files among several web-servers. That files are generated on the fly and

Hi, when syncing from windows NT/cygwin to linux usimg rsync 2.5.2 I get the following error: readlink pagefile.sys: Permission denied IO error encountered - skipping file deletion pagefile.sys is however in the exclude-list, so I think rsync shouldn't care that it can't stat the file. The code fragment responsible is if (readlink_stat(fname, &st, linkbuf) != 0) {

I have attached a patch that supports a new "--direct-write" option. The result of using this option is to write directly to the destination files, instead of a temporary file first. The reason this patch is needed is for rsyncing to a device where the device is full or nearly full. Say that I am writing to a device that has 1 Meg free, and a 2 meg file on that device is out of date.

Hiya, I can see it's a regular subject on this list. I, like others wanted to use rsync to synchronise two block devices (as it happens one lvm volume and one nbd device served by qemu-img on a remote host from a qcow2 disk image so that I can keep the old versions) As I couldn't find any report of it being done successfully, I'm just sharing my findings as it might benefit others.

Does unix password sync still work in Samba 4.1.6? I'm trying to debug setting passwords on a system... I have this in smb.conf passdb backend = samba_dsdb passwd program = /usr/local/sbin/passtest.sh %u passwd chat = *password* %n\n passwd chat debug = Yes unix password sync = Yes My passtest.sh script is very simple... #!/bin/bash set -e user=$1

I have a large installation >20k users. We're using samba4 for AD Authentication, and also email address validation. I'm trying to edit the @INDEXLIST in sam.ldb to add an index on otherMailbox to speed up searches (0.05 sec for indexed, vs 2.5 sec for non-indexed searches) I'm finding that when I use ldbedit to do this, it appears to add the additional @IDXATTR. However, when I

I've recently encountered this issue which was discussed here about a year ago. I'm not sure if anyone has a fix for this, but I thought I would post my workaround here. Since the topic is old, I'm summarising the problem .. basically it involves rsync creating large numbers of files with a leading ".." when syncing to an apple network share via afp. The essence of the

All callers of robust_rename() call copy_file() if EXDEV is received. This patch moves the copy_file() call into robust_rename().

Hi, I'm running 2.04b on two RH 5.2 boxes (A + B). The boxes are control separate domains and have a router in between them. I would like for the domain controlled by A to show up in browse list on B. I've tried using remote announce on A to broadcast on the other side of the router, but domain A does not show up.... It seems to me that WINS (nmbd) should be able to hold

When I try to manage samba shares from windows, I cannot reliably get the Security Tab to show up. I have tried many reprovisions, sometimes it works, sometimes not. I cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong. How the domain is provisioned... samba-tool domain provision \ --domain=avails \ --host-name=fs.avails.com \ --host-ip=10.2.2.1 \ --adminpass='not2forget!' \

There is a small race condition in rsync 2.5.6. When the transfer is finished, and the file is moved into place, there is a short time period where the new file is in place with the wrong permissions. When using rsync on a busy email server to replace the exim config file with a new file, exim will produce several complaints in that short period. This small patch fixes the problem, by making

The attached patch provides an additional check for the checksumming mode to ensure that a file that is actually written out to disk can be read back and has the same MD4 sum as the file on at the originating location.

List, I'm trying to figure out how to get access to remote shares.... I have two RH 5.2 boxes running 2.04b separated by routers (pecan the VIRCIO lmb and shipe the COMMUNITY lmb)... I turned on remote browse sync to get the browselist from COMMUNITY onto VIRCIO. The COMMUNITY domain shows up on VIRCIO, but it is empty... I don't know, but I think that this could be security

This is a patch to fix one annoyance of having rsync processes race: I usually keep our servers synced with the following script, run by cron. #!/bin/sh lockfile -r 2 -l 1000 /tmp/synchome.lock || exit 1 rsync -e ssh -avHP --delete zorro01:/home/\* /home >/dev/null rm -f /tmp/synchome.lock -- Sometimes my users (including myself) are in a hurry and syncronise files and directories in their

Hi, The problem I found is not in what rsync, but on the error handling: How to reproduce: On server side I setup a tree and share using rsync + xinetd, of course, for security reason I use chroot option. Now I push this symlink: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 nov 10 16:28 horsroot -> /bin/ Now I try to do: ./rsync -avPH --copy-unsafe-links draco::test/ /tmp/rsyncdest/ (Of course the

I've run into a bug in the IO handling when reading a file. Suppose I have a file that lives on an NFS filesystem. That filesystem is NOT being exported with auth=0 permissions. So, if I try to access a file as root, it successfully opens the file, but subsequent reads fail with EACCES. This produces a destination file full of null bytes. I noticed this with 2.5.7, but checked 2.6.2 as

Hi, As the man page says, the --partial flag is to "keep partially transferred files". I'm assuming if I don't have partial flag any partially transferred files should be deleted. However this is not what I'm seeing. Example: (Using a big file so that rsync times a while to run. This gives me time to hit CTRL-C for the SIGINT). > mkdir example > dd if=/dev/zero
