Hi, How about adding now option '--backup-only' that means making backups only and don't change any destination files? (I posted similar patch a month ago, but the patch was made for nightly snapshot of 20020808, which was tooo old! Laugh at me...) I want to use rsync with LVM snapshot to make incremental backups like below: 1) Make LVM snapshot of file system and mount it.

double-colon mode doesn't work in CVS version. -vv says port number is 0. % rsync -vv host.domain::any opening tcp connection to host.domain port 0 rsync: failed to connect to host.domain: Can't assign requested address (49) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(94) And --port=873 cannot be used in client mode now. I made a small sample patch. (Sorry, I

In socket.c, the variable error is unitilialzed. Also the variable length should be an unsigned int.

Hello, It would be goog if attached patch will be included in upstream. This patch adds option --apt-support for rsync and with this option rsync will print some additiona information about file being transfered. No program logic changed. Having this option in rsync we can have apt with rsync method support. Begin forwarded message: Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2003 11:34:14 -0200 From: Gustavo Niemeyer

Hi, all -- Here's a small patch that gives better diagnostics on the daemon side if it fails to start up due to inability to create or bind the socket. Presently, it gives a log entry indicating that no sockets could be bound, but crucially does *not* have the system error message (i.e. errno) from the failed call, making it difficult or impossible to determine the problem. I do have a

Hi, I've noticed that nmap crashes my imap-login (also pop3-login) and narrowed it down to `nmap -sV -p 993 $host`. I've noticed that if I remove "ssl_protocols = !SSLv2 !SSLv3" from my config or enable SSLv3 rather than disabling it the segfault disappears. I'm running on Arch Linux with dovecot 2.2.16-1 and openssl 1.0.2.a-1. I've also attached a network capture, but

Greetings, Upon a suggestion to improve the --timelimit patch, I have also added a --stopat option. You can get the patch from this URL and/or cut/paste it from below. http://www.terry.uga.edu/~jft/rsync-timelimit-stopat.patch.gz Here are the details... --timelimit=T This option allows you to specify the maximum number of minutes rsync will run for. This time starts when

Hello! In the attached file is patch for the option to set client connection limit. We had problem for dead hosts, so default system timeout is not enough. --conlimit option added Will be great to see this patch in the future version, so we do not need to patch every time. Thanks and Cheers, Eugene. -- -------------- next part -------------- diff -Naur rsync-2.6.8/errcode.h

Hi folks, I've discovered a local stack overflow bug in rsync 2.5.7. Problem is in open_socket_out function (socket.c). ... char portbuf[10]; char *h; int proxied = 0; char buffer[1024]; char *cp; ... h = getenv("RSYNC_PROXY"); proxied = (h != NULL) && (*h != '\0'); ... if (proxied) {

In the bufferbloat age, anything that can make for a kinder, gentler bulk transfer protocol seems desirable. This add support for user and server selectable congestion control algorithms. As examples: --congestion-alg=lp # For the tcp-lp algorithm on the command line Or in a subsection: [mystuff] congestion alg = westwood # for a wireless connection And diffserv support: --diffserv=8 for

Greetings, I have written a patch for rsync-2.6.1pre-2 which adds a --time-limit=T option. When this option is used rsync will stop after T minutes and exit. I think this option is useful when rsyncing a large amount of data during the night (non-busy hours), and then stopping when it is time for people to start using the network, during the day (busy hours). If this patch is accepted it may

OpenSSH supports the -b bind_address argument for binding to a local IP address when connecting to a remote host. It's however currently not possible to specify a local port to bind to, something I've found useful at several occasions. Below is an unified diff that introduces the [-B bind_port] option to ssh(1) and a ssh_config(5) style option "BindPort bind_port". This allows

Hi, tmux author refuses to add -h, --help option, because OpenSSH does not have it [1]. I don't see why convenience features of tmux should depend on OpenSSH, but because I have no other choice (and got curious) I ask here - why OpenSSH doesn't provide -h or --help option? I use PuTTY as my client, which processes --help option, and for `ssh` binary I usually use Google + StackOverflow.

Hello all, I recently have a problem with multiple addresses and address families. Problem is simple, i have some hosts with IPv4 access only and some with IPv6 access. This wouldn't be big problem if I had a stable IP addresses. But sometimes I move to another network with complete different addresses. So I created patch which on option BindAddress accept list of addresses. With ip I solved

If rsync is called with -4 or -6, that option is currently ignored when ssh is used as the transport. The attached patch is a stab at passing the option on to the ssh process. It checks that the remote shell program is something that looks like ssh. Perhaps that could be done cleaner...

Hi all, My patch for supporting "Basic" HTTP Proxy Authentication has been updated for rsync 2.5.6 by Martin Ehmsen. The patch changes the interpretation of the RSYNC_PROXY environment variable so that the syntax user:pass@proxy.foo.com:port may be used instead of just proxy.foo.com:port (the old syntax is, of course, still supported). The updated patch is available at:
