Hi Donovan, Thank you for the insight. I will keep you posted on this.

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum for questions regarding librsync, but couldn't find any others. I'm trying to get librsync working properly on Solaris 2.7 and 2.8 Sparc servers. The problem is that while librsync appears to compile cleanly, "make check" fails the sources.test. Does anyone have any insight as to why this might be? Might I need a specific

I'm interested in these very questions (librsync-rsync relationship, remaining limitations of rsync, active prospects for ground-up rewrites), Google searches for rsync info have proved a little too vague due to the programs ubiquity. Much has certainly changed since this was written, could some people with knowledge in these areas could update martin's response for the state of rsync,

Hello everybody, About librsync, does anyone know how to patch the delta without creating a new file ? I used the librsync and it always generates a new file, which is embarrassing if the file is over 1Gb. I tried to store the new file in RAM, but it saturates the machine. Is there a possibility to write in the current file to be synchronized, although this file is currently being

I am the author of BackupPC (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net) and I am working on adding rsync support to BackupPC. I am implementing the server-side in perl, and the client will run vanilla rsync. (BTW, is there the protocol documented? I've answered all my questions by looking at the source, but it would be great to check against any docs.) I started with librsync 0.9.3 and the

All, Does anyone know anything about librsync, and where it is currently maintained = on the web? It apparently is/was a samba project, but I'm not sure how it relates. The authors are listed as: Martin Pool <mbp@samba.org> Andrew Tridgell <tridge@samba.org> but I suspect someone else did the 0.9.5.1 update, because only 0.9.5 is = available on the rproxy site

For anyone who'd like to check out the latest release of my "rzync" [sic] test release, I've just released a new version. For those that might not have time to look at the code but could provide some feedback based on a rough description, I've created the following simple web page: http://www.clari.net/~wayne/new-protocol.html Here's the tar file of the new

I have been really lax in supporting librsync for the last few months, because of a new job and taking over maintenance of rsync

Hey, I'm currently adding rsync to pacman (http://archlinux.org/pacman). A static version of the program is used for rescue operations. Because of this it is impossible to use the rsync client programm via an execve call and we need a version implemented in C. So I started implementing it. But the rsync source isn't beautiful or structured - it's just a big hunk of code. I spent

On the subject of needed patches, I just recently completed a patch for librsync that fixed the mdfour code to have uint_64 or 2 uint_32's for size. Without this, the checksums on files >512Megs are incorrect. The code should drop into rsync without a hitch. The same goes for mdfour in samba, becuase that is where librsync got the code from anyway. Robert Weber University of

Hi, I'm experiencing a problem on rsync with the --delete option. Situation: Server = Mandrake Linux 9.2 running rsync daemon Client = Windows XP workstation running cygwin + rsync2.5.1 combined with ssh. All this implemented conform the website of Robert Scholten (http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/rsync/) Every thing seems to work fine exept for the --delete option. The rsync says:

Hi, I am working on a replication tool for lustre filesystems. We have introduced a mechanism for getting the changes that have been made to a lustre filesystem - similar to inotify. We call this mechanism, changelogs. For performing replication, we open the source file using its 'file identifier' or FID (think of it an inode that is unique cluster wide) instead of its path. The file is

Hi there Is there a commercial license for using Rsync or the Rsync algorithm within a commercial product? I appreciate that Rsync as it stands is GNU and therefore it cannot be used in this way, but I thought that I would ask the list. I understand that it is open source, but we have an application that would benefit from something like Rsync and therefore thought we would ask the question. If

Hi. It seems that librsync got left by the roadside ... is there anything similar for rsync 3.x.x? Or, is there any easy way to use the library routines in the rsync 3.x.x source independantly? The only other open source software I've found that looks similar is xdelta, and it's still beta for v3.x Thanks, Sam -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi, I was reading an article recently about how google ranks results (among many other things of course) based on the proximity of the search terms in the source documents. In addition, the position of the search terms in the search query string itself is also taken into consideration when determining how important each term is. Does Xapian do something similar - at least for the first part?

our daily backup is done using the rdiff-backup tool, which in turn utilizes rsync/librsync to do the actual mirroring work. a few days ago we did a refactoring and renamed a bunch of directories. for backward compatibility we maintain the old names by symlinking it to the new names. so, for example, oldname1/ now becomes newname1/, and oldname1 is now a symlink to newname1/. we found that
