similar to: rsync feature request: conditional compression

With the increased number of "brute force" login attempts against port 22, I am concerned that an intruder may actually stumble accross a valid user/pass combination. To combat this, I would like to request an sshd_config option that would cause the running sshd parent process to keep track of login failures by IP address. If there are more than X number of login failures for a

I am running into an issue with rsync that I need some help with. When syncing large files (e.g. 1GB), the rsync algorithm creates a temporary 1GB file and then renames it when the transfer is finished. The issue I am running into is if the two large files have very few differences between them, the bottleneck is creating the 1GB temporary file on the target box. This process takes several

Hello All, I have been using rsync to backup several filesystems by using Mike Rubel's hard link method (http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/). The problem is, I am backing up a lot of ASCII .log, csv, and .txt files. These files are large and can range anywhere from 1GB to 30GB. I was wondering if on the target side (the backup side), if I can use some sort of compression. I

Well, I followed this link: http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/ and implemented it (with a bit of tweaking) on my home network. It is used to make snapshots of two Windows PC's over samba. On one of the machines (and not the other, from what I can tell) it deletes files from the target machine for no good reason (ie. they still exist on the source machine). Then, if I run

I read the following hint at: http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/#Incremental mv backup.0 backup.1 rsync -a --delete --link-dest=../backup.1 source_directory/ backup.0/ I simply want to maintain a dated backup of a server so that I could always go back to a certain date. I would like to keep this structure for each day for the last seven days, then one weekly snapshot for

I'm trying to configure rsync snapshots as described at http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/. I'm essentially using the following commands: mv backup.3 backup.tmp mv backup.2 backup.3 mv backup.1 backup.2 mv backup.0 backup.1 mv backup.tmp backup.0 cp -al backup.1 backup.0 rsync -a --delete source_directory/ backup.0/ I'm trying to backup two directories in a

Hello list readers, I am doing rsync backups based on Mike Rubels recipe (http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/). I am creating lvm snapshots of partitions whose contents changes fast. In order to verify if evyerthing went ok, I do md5sum checks on all files and everytime some files are failing the test. Here is a list of them: ./amavis/db/__db.001: FAILED ./amavis/db/__db.002:

Hello, I'm trying to make incremental backups with rsync (I'm reading http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/ ) But I can't backup a file with old owner when the change on the file is only the owner (content is unchanged). rsync -av -e ssh --link-dest=$PWD/backup.1/ --numeric-ids --delete root@myhost.mydomaine.org:/var/www backup.0 If I look at the owner of

Greetings, I've been using samba for a few years now sharing files from the local filesystems without a hitch. Recently I have tried to throw into the mix read only samba shares of read only nfs mounts. I can browse these shares but any attempt to copy files from them seems to reset the connection. Windows says the resource is unavailable. On the Debian system that is sharing the file I see

Hello, I get hanging rsync-processes while synchronisize windows to linux, starting on linux. The problem is not new, I found some mails in this list (archive) and on http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/#Bugs too. Example of the command: rsync -e 'ssh -i /backup/data/servers/identities/backup.W2000Server -p 22 -x -oForwardAgent=no -oClearAllForwardings=yes' --archive

I am just wondering what the criteria is for getting something added to the rsync resouces page, http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync/resources.html. I have recently been working on a small little program, RSBackup, that I use to backup my computers to each other. Limiting the concern of a hardware failure causing me to lose any of my bits. Basically it takes the tutorial by Mike Rubel on using rsync

All, I just had a power failure that caused me a little drama. This spurred me into trying to get NUT up on my cyberpower 1500 again. For about 6 months I tried to get it to work with the new power panel drive with no luck. Today I removed all the old files for NUT and installed the newest version I could find (2.4.3) and it works perfectly now with my UPS. Hopefully now I

Hi All, I am presently doing a small POC with rsync for incremental backup and restore starategies. I have come up with certain question down the line, can anyone help me with the explanation. Used the config and ideas from: http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/ The commands executed on two machines in sequence Machine 1: root at Andruil:~# vim testfile root at Andruil:~# ls

Ok, sorry about the top post. Compiled and installed 3.2.3, found a few stilled borked configs with my MPD, and fixed that, and both Icecast (after playing with ownerships that were deleted when I de-yum'ed the icecast RPM from the Fedora repo's) and icecast is working. I will clean up the config to remove some of the things that were mentioned though. Looking at the interface for the

All, I am toying with an idea of using an AGI to be able to 'call' my phone, or phones, in case of severe weather warnings. I have been tinkering with a script that reads from weather underground for the forecast, based off a PHP version of a weather AGI I found on the net. It seems rather trivial to have the AGI as a script, that does nothing unless a condition is met, and

All, I just noticed this in my logs, and am rather lost as to what module it pertains to. I would assume pseudo-realtime priority for the process, but I am looking for a little confirmation from the group: [Apr 28 12:28:36] WARNING[20773] asterisk.c: The canary is no more.
