similar to: Mirroring cvs archives

Hi all, We are currently looking at a solution for backing up files on laptops to a server in a small office (10 users). I was looking at rsync as a solution. Here is my suggested solution: Install rsync on network server - this is Windows 2000 :-( Share the root of C:\ on laptops Schedule rsync to periodically mount to laptops share ove SMB (if they can be found) and running an incremental

This patch causes --exclude-from and --include-from to read from STDIN when given - for a filename. This was formerly incorporated in my --link-dest patch. Patch against current cvs. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.

I just did a make clean to tidy up a bit and found four objects were missed. The seem to belong to the CHECK_PROGS set. Not sure where best to put them so created a CHECK_OBJS variable and added it to the clean rule. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.

rsync'ing from NFS automounted /home directories does not appear to work as expected. Initially it automounts all the home directories, and copies the tree. However, when I run the same command a second time, it deletes all the files for with the /home directory happened to be unmounted. Some more details: Using 'ypmatch -k auto.home', I generate a list of /home/ directories to

Updated to current cvs without the --exclude-from - patch. This patch allows specifying a --link-dest path similar to --compare-dest except that unchanged files are hard-linked to the --link-dest path instead of producing a sparse tree. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.

I was startled to find that the --csum-length option is not implemented even though it is documented in the manpage. Not a good thing. Here's a patch that removes the manpage entry. I'd much rather not see this option and actually have the csum_length be per-file dynamic. Either way this patch should be applied at least until the code changes. The patch also brings rsync.1 and

Please forgive me for the really dumb question following. I am a complete newbie to rsync. I have been trying to set up an rsync server and am unable to get any logging. I need to know if the following is possible. I'm rsyncing from the client and connecting with ssh to an rsync server. I can connect just fine and the files go with no problem. I'm going from a RedHat 7.3 with rsync

Dear all, I''m new to traffic shapping although i have gone through marking and HTB queueing but i felt trouble in tc filter . I wonder if any one give me the hints about quantum or r2q. i guess quantum is used when two class has same prio and rate and want to give first priority between them and control the borrowing traffic. It should be set more than MTU too. But my

Please CC me directly as i'm not on the list. I have attached a patch against latest CVS (cvs diff -u) that adds the following functionality. I can break it up if you would prefer it in pieces. Comments welcome. o add compare-perms option This creates a new inode for a file even if only the perms have changed. This way if a file outside of destdir is hardlinked to a dentry inside

We've just been hit rather badly by a very nasty bug that can cause rsync to silently discard files or fill them with zeroes. It happens when e.g. opendir() succeeds but readdir() returns an error; rsync does not check for an error from readdir() and so simply ignores the error (along with any remaining files in the directory). No error is reported to the user, who will then happily

i'm trying to use rsync to mirror my server boot volume to another disk of the same size (120gb) on the same machine: % sudo rsync -avxuH --delete --progress /./ /volumes/cbc.server2/ although all of the files from the source volume appear to copy to the destination, if i try to boot from the destination volume the system doesn't recognize it as a bootable disk. anyone have any

Because of security reasons, my school has blocked tcp port 445 and 139. This make it impossible to for my window xp desktop to the remote samba service on Linux. Although the samba sercie on Linux and change its port by a "-p" option. But windows always look for 445 and 139 port. I've tried a lot of ways to work it out including local port redirection but none of them works. Is

This is just a trivial documentation change. The word "link" is overloaded. It refers to symlinks, hardlinks and network links. When looking for references to file links in the manpages the network references get in the way. This patch changes when reasonable to do so the word "link" to "connection" when referring to the network. This is just a suggested

Hi, It's a bit offtopic for this list, but you might be able to help. For libvorbis rc3, what is the correct bitrate parametrization for the call vorbis_encode_init()? For rc2, it worked calling it the following way: vorbis_encode_init( &vorbisInfo, 2, // two channels 44100, // 44.1kHz

Yes, I've read the FAQ, just hoping for a boon... I'm in the process of relocating a large amount of data from one nfs server to another (Network Appliance filers). The process I've been using is to nfs mount both source and destination to a server (solaris8) and simply use rsync -a /source/ /dest . It works great except for the few that have > 10 million files. On these I get

Two patches: one to correct the spelling of permissions (in comments, but such typos disturb me as well), and one to cast inode and dev to unsigned long before comparing, to prevent gcc giving a warning "comparison between signed and unsigned".

Is it possible to do live backups of a running DB with rsync??? I was just talking to livevault.com & they (only on win boxes) say they can grab changes from a client's live DB & sync them remotely. It sounded like BS to me, but I'm neither a DB guy or sync'ing expert. Steve Mallett

Not sure if this is not the proper channel (forum) for this, but I need some help. We have been using rsync in various ways on various platforms. Linux-SGI (IRIX)-MacOSX In all cases the actual LOCAL file transfer seems to be limited to 10MB/sec from disk to disk. Always copy whole files. (no rolling checksums) Rsync ?avW rsync version 2.5.6 protocol version 26 We have tested
