similar to: rsync 2.5.6 still hangs

Hi, I've a setup where a special account (limited by the ssh-key) can use rsync via ssh to make a backup of / (limited by sudo). Obviously it needs read-access to everything. However, since he can read everything, he could also easily _write_ everything. Can I limit the rsync command on the server to read-only? Thanks in advance Martin -- Martin Schr?der,

This is less a question about rsync and more about how rsync can be used as a backup solution in a particular case. If one of the tools built over rsync for this purpose solves this, I'm eager to hear how. Otherwise, suggestions are welcome. Server-initiated backups are easy. The rsync process can run as root on the backup server, and so it can set the stored files' ownerships as

Hello All, We have a sensitive network where users authenticates through SSH. We support multiple authentications with respective to their groups . As a security concern we continue to monitor failed or bad login attempts of every user using lastb command, but SSH never logs the bad login attempts of the user like telnet does . We would like to have this feature on SSH for every supported

Hi, I have a 3.0.3 PDC with the configuration | netbios name = BERTHA | workgroup = MEITNER which is also represented by browse.dat: | bertha:~# cat /var/cache/samba/browse.dat | "MEITNER" c0001000 "BERTHA" "MEITNER" | "BERTHA" 400d9b2b "Lise-Meitner Fileservice" "MEITNER" However,

Hi, I have a network with a Server running 3.0.14 (Debian sarge), which is doing quite fine as a PDC and as a printer server (using cups). Almost. Printing is working, I can print Windows test pages, I can print from several applications, including MS office. But I cannot print over the network from Acrobat Reader, not at all. If a network printer is selected and used, than _nothing_ happens,

I've been using 3.0.0pre8 to move a Debian archive from one filesystem to another. This archive contains a daily snapshot of the Debian ftp site, with common files hardlinked to save space. I noticed that it was using far more space than necessary. Upon investigation it seems that all the source files that have inode numbers greater than 2^31 aren't being hardlinked together at the

While syncing a directory with about 40 files of various sizes (4KB - 20MB), rsync will hang, in a repeatable manner. (Where "repeatable" means that I get identical logs with -vvv set, modulo the temp file names.) I am using rsync in "server" mode - started by xinetd. Both sides are rsync 2.5.6. The server is RH Linux 7.0 (yeah, I know...), clients are Debian unstable (kernel

Hello, I have a Samba 3.0/LDAP setup with | ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers but as this is for a school, I decided to separate teachers and scholars computers into different sub-OUs for my own mental sanity. So in LDAP it looks like: | dn: uid=pc116$,ou=Schueler,ou=Computers,dc=lise-meitner,dc=at or | dn: uid=biblio1$,ou=Lehrer,ou=Computers,dc=lise-meitner,dc=at This works absolutely

Hello, I have a Debian machine with samba 3.0.2a-1 (which should bei identical to samba-latests, AFAIK). For a reason not yet known nmbd processes keep hanging around forever, eating up memory slowly, but steadily. Logfiles do not show anything suspicious (to me, at least, I don't want to put a days level 10 log in here), except from things like | Mar 8 10:06:22 bertha kernel: Out of

Hello, I recently switched an environment from Samba 2.x to 3.0 without any major problems. LDAP database was converted and everything worked fine, _including_ chaning passwords with smbpasswd. However, I now had to create a new account, which failed. I created an LDAP entry first, because I use LDAP for Unix-Authentification as well. Afterwards, I wanted to add the Samba-specific attributes

The PGO was my first guess but I can get a lot of information. At first, I follow the explanation at http://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#profiling-with-instrumentation but instead of llvm-profdata merge, I used llvm-profdata show *.profraw. Sadly, the information I get is the total number of function, the maximum function count and the maximum internal block count. Do you know if you

Dear list members, this is very similar to a problem which has been discussed last summer on the list, but there was no final solution then (as far as I could follow the thread of messages). Would you please take a look at my problem, to see if I'm missing something? Here is the useful data: * Purpose: using rsync over SSH as a non-anonymous file server to transfer files between two

I have an rsync server running on nodeA and a client, nodeB. I am attempting to do a sync/copy from the local machine, nodeB, to the rsync server, nodeA. The following line from the rsync man page makes it look like this is relatively simple: for copying from the local machine to a remote rsync server. This is invoked when the destination path contains a :: separator or a rsync:// URL. I have
