Hi I've always updated and committed my cvsroot directory using rsync also under windows with rsync distributed with cygwin. After installed the new release of cywing with rsync 2.5.6 protocol version 26, updating my cvsroot does not work anymore (under windows): it locks with receiving file list ... I use this command to update: rsync -e ssh -avzu --delete -c -C --include=CVS

I have another small feature suggestion, it should not cause such a stir as the whole "file list" issue (I kind of wish I never said anything about it :) ). What about adding a "UMASK" setting to rsync (for use on the command line and/or perhaps rsyncd.conf)? I realize that it may be a problem/conflict with -p, but I think it could be a useful feature. -- Aaron W Morris

Hi, I've noticed every time someone does an rsync-request on my ftp-site (which also provides rsync as mirror method), rsyncd creates a filelist. This is a quite IO and CPU intensive procedure, especially for things mirrors like FreeBSD with lots of little files. I was wondering... is there a way to cache that filelist? Our mirrors are updated once, or twice a day, it could speed up

We've been using an imap(s) dovecot server for a while on an ubuntu 8.04.2 and we noted that tags set by thunderbird ("important", "to do", etc.) are almost always lost, i.e., when connecting to the same imap account from another machine, the tags are not there anymore... this always happens for the Inbox, and seldomly for other imap folders... anyone else experiencing

Hello I am trying to set up a backup server running Solaris 8 with rsync 2.5.5 and ipfilter the latest version. The problem i have is i have about 16 different interfaces that are secured via ipfilter , and i tried running rsync via rsh but ipfilter would not set up a keepstate with rsh which meant i had to open up and that is not acceptable. So what i tried then was via ssh and that worked fine

Hi folks, I am hoping someone here can offer some suggestions. Here is my situation: I am using rsync over the internet for several hundred clients to keep them in sync with a master repository of files. The rsync daemon is listening on port 80, because most of the clients are behind firewalls that only allow outbound port 80 (and other common ports). This works fine for most of them

Hi, As a gentoo-user i frequently run the emerge sync command, which in turn does a rsync with the mainserver. The 'problem' is that the portage directory tree contains about 19.000 directories and 96.000 files. So building the filelist takes a pretty long time, because of the many disk accesses that are neccesary. On the server side the disk-io problem is probably less worse since

Hello Rsync PRO?s, i?m satisfied with the rsync features...never seen a better replication tool....!! ;-) But i have some problems...:-( OK, here me installation: - one Compac Proliant ML370 with cached SCSI HDDs and 1,2GHz and 1gb RAM... on this machine we have the Rsync deamon runnig to export the data we want to replicate - now we have 68 other NAS machines in our branch offices and this NAS

Dear all, I have the following problem: I use the following command to "push" files from "local" to a "remote" machine: [...] /usr/bin/rsync -avuz -e "ssh -1" --exclude ".Xauthority" --delete /user/home/directory/ user@remote.machine.name:/user/home/directory/ ; (The ssh is using RSA authentication btw. machines, but that's beside the

The attached diff causes rsync to show how much time it spends on building and sending its filelist. I'd appreciate if you could consider this change for inclusion in a future release. -------------- next part -------------- diff -ru rsync-2.6.3pre1/flist.c rsync-2.6.3pre1+tykhe/flist.c --- rsync-2.6.3pre1/flist.c 2004-08-12 14:20:07.000000000 -0400 +++ rsync-2.6.3pre1+tykhe/flist.c

Hi, This is a very simple question I realise, but I hope maybe someone can just help me out. I am trying to do a very simple thing, just transfer a file from machine A to machine B using rsync with ssh. This is what i'm typing: bash-2.03# rsync -avvv --rsh="ssh -l tdf" tdf@machine.niss.ac.uk:/export/home/tdf/demofile.html demofile.html This is what I get: opening connection

I was wondering if it's possible to restrict rsync in various ways on the server side when it is invoked via ssh. Two restrictions I had in mind are disallowing deletes and/or restricting all actions to a particular subdirectory. I was hoping to be able to do this without having to be root (for a chroot) or having to set up special sshd server instances/chroots. If there's not already a

Hi-- Ok. I?ve now run into the next thing I can?t find in man, and this time, I googled as well: --exclude /afs/\* I thought you could just say: --exclude /afs/* or even --exclude /afs/ To exclude the entire afs directory. Can you explain what the purpose of the \ and * are here? Thanks again :) All My Best, Jeffrey on 8/6/06 5:00 AM, rsync-request@lists.samba.org at

This was exactracted from a 8192x4 texture, with 32x4 tiles. 4 patterns appears, each 8x128 bytes long. these patterns are repeated, and one is always left out. So 123, 234, 134, 124. The repetetive cycle is therefore 4x3x8x128 = 12288 bytes long. I've included the color code ods file, which contains the normal -> actual position. I have no idea how this goes for larger tiles (is the

I am having a bit of a problem with rsync 2.6.2 on AIX and I was wondering if this might just be the expected behavior. When using the -o and -g flags, the user and group names are NOT preserved on the receiving side, however, the UIDs/GIDs are preserved. I checked the OLDNEWS file and bugzilla, but could not find any reference to a problem like this. Vitals: -rsync 2.6.2 with security patch

Hi I would need to synschronize some Netscape stuff to a server ("roaming profiles" are not included anymore in the recent versions of Netscape). In particular I'd like to synchronize bookmarks, address book and mail filters. So I need to synchronize ONLY the following three files (that are in the mozilla directory work/mozilla) to the remote server (in the directory

Hi, I've tried various combinations of --exclude and --include, but I can't quite get it. What I'd like to do is only mirror certain directories in a tree. For example, say a directory tree starting at /x contained under it several directories named "abc". I want to mirror only the "abc" directories and what's under them and nothing else. /x/abcdef/456

Hi, I want to make rsync compare a local filesystem with a previously generated file containing the required informations about each file von the remote filesystem. a) Is this possible? b) How can I generate the required filelist?
