similar to: rsyncd bug for sym-links

I THINK I've found a bug in rsync. When running an rsync daemon, absolute sym-links are not created correctly on the daemon end; the leading 'slash' is stripped off. To 'fix' this behavior, the following 3 changes can be made (to version 2.5.5): flist.c:63 add: extern int am_daemon; flist.c:538 (was 537) modify: if (sanitize_paths && !am_daemon) { config.h:316

Hello, I am trying to run rsync under my own userid on a high-numbered port. The problem is that, when I use the --daemon option, I get an error saying that a chroot() call failed. My config file does *not* have any chroot call in it. How can I avoid a chroot() invocation when running as a normal non-root user? Thanks in advance for any advice! -- Daniel Ortmann, LSI Logic, 3425 40th Av NW,

Hi all, I have a problem synching a directory that as symbolic links. The behavior is: If a symlink is relative (like ../../file) the link is copied correctly If a symlink is absolute (like /root/document) the link is copied like (root/document) whithout the first slash. By the way some link are not usable. I use rsync 2.5.5 protocol 26 and the command is rsync -varlRHpogDtxP .

My zfs filesystem hangs when transferring large filesystems (>500GB) with a couple dozen snapshots between servers using zfs send/receive with netcat. The transfer hangs about halfway through and is unkillable, freezing all IO to the filesystem, requiring a hard reboot. I have attempted this three times and failed every time. On the destination server I use: nc -l -p 8023 | zfs receive -vd sas

I am using stepAIC for stepwise regression modeling. Is there a way to change the entry and exit alpha levels for the stepwise regression using stepAIC ? Many thanks, Berthold Berthold Stegemann Bakken Research Center Maastricht The Netherlands [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

(As I was composing this, the 2.6.1 release notice on the rsync list rolled in. The quoted source, below, hasn't changed, so I'll leave the 'pre-1' references unchanged...) I have a situation where an error message seems to be sent from the daemon to the client, but none is logged in the daemon's log. Daemon is 2.6.1pre-1, with --timeout=3600, light CPU load. Client is

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- With rsync --server, sometimes when the remote side control-C's a transfer, rsync will immediately start consuming all available RAM. gdb shows that its recursing while trying to report the failed write: #0 0x420503ac in vfprintf () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #1 0x42072f74 in vsnprintf () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #2 0x08052ca4 in rprintf

Here's a resend of an old patch that is intended to avoid an infinite recursion (ending in a stack overflow) of the rwrite() function getting an error that calls rwrite(), ad naseum. I've only seen this happen when one of the sides dies due to a program error -- in that case, the connection is closed, and when we try to send an error to the other side and it generates an error, the error

Unless you suppress all output with the -q option, rsync will always print an initial "building/receiving file list ... done" line. In my opinion, this is a bit superfluous. When I want to see a progress indication, I can use the --progress option. Another issue is the 3-line transfer speed and speedup factor report at the end. So every rsync invocation produces at least four lines of

This mode is useful when a process is monitoring the log for post-processing of transferred files. With --log-after in local mode, both sender and receiver log to the same log file, so it require --log-file with absolute path. We add %o to the default log format, so it will be easy to tell the logs of the sender from the logs of the receiver: 2023/02/14 14:40:25 [559755] building file list

Hello everyone! I didn't find anything in the archives that seemed similar (same error, different offending lines of code). I'm having an issue with rsync on a couple of my servers. A couple of others run just fine but 2 of them give me the same message (see below) when I try to do backups from one server to these linux boxes. All of the linux boxes are the same and have the save

Hi! I am doing backups from a number of machines to an rsync server. For some time I was trying to come up with a solution, which would prevent users from peeking at each other's files, which are backed up. Finally, I've hacked rsync, introducing a new option "write only" for rsyncd.conf. When set to true, this option forbids the transfers from server to the client, thus solving

Hi All, I am trying to see the rsync source code. I could see that there are main three processes: I realize that Server or Client becomes Sender or Receiver based on arguments provided. 1. Daemon start_daemon : clientserver.c 2. Server if(sender) { call recv_filter_list : exclude.c call send_file_list : flist.c call send_files :

Have just upgraded to samba 1.9.18p3 on a RedHat 5.0 linux system... now... when i type smbstatus... this is what i get.. Couldn't open status file /var/lock/samba/STATUS..LCK so i assume that for some reason... this status file is not created upon startup.. Pat.

Since the heap statistics were added, I have viewed thousands of rsync reports (with --verbose and --stats), and not once have I had a need for them. So for me, they're just noise. Here is a 3-part patch to v2.5.6 that treats --stats in a similar fashion to --verbose in that additional --stats will get you more statistics. For this initial case, there's only one additional level of

Gunnar, Check (ll -d dirname) to make sure that there is at least x permission for everyone in each directory down the /var/adm/slh/samba/locks path; also, does the STATUS..LCK file exist in the named directory, and if so what are the permissions on it?

In an experimental setup we obtain z-data samples at equidistant grid points. The surf.gls (Kriging) algorithm produces an error under this circumstance when performing the Choleski decomposition. A workaround is to dither the grid coordinates using (x <- rnorm(length(x)) ; y<- rnowm(length(y))). Question: Is this an expected behaviour of the surf.gls function ? Regards, Berthold
