What I want to do is use rsync to back up a folder to an external drive. I would like to keep 30 days worth. For example: I have backups of June 1 - June 30. Once July 1 comes along, I want to keep June 2 - July 1 and delete June 1, and so forth. Any ideas how I can accomplish this? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Rysnc-Schedule-tf4104577.html#a11672997 Sent from the

Hi all, I'm new to the rsync list. I've been searching for two days and have tried five different installs and so far none work the way I need them to. I have an "backup" server running rsync --version: rsync version 2.6.6 protocol version 29 Copyright (C) 1996-2005 by Andrew Tridgell and others <http://rsync.samba.org/> Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard

OK, I set up a new PC with a fresh XP load to be my rsync server. Rsync by itself seems to work fine (thank God. I'm going nuts.) I am still having problems when I throw ssh into the mix. At least now, things don't crash, but they do hang. The file list gets build, the transfer starts and it gets through maybe a few hundred files, but then everything stops. All the processes are still

Just built 2.6.1 and started testing it. Nice job guys. I especially love the --progress and hardlink tweaks. Quite often, while I have systems backing up out of cron, I'd love to be able to see the --progress. Unfortunately, it's just not practical to crank up the verbosity like that on a regular basis (some of these systems have a few million files). A neat feature I'd like to see

I am attempting to use rsync to backup a Win98 laptop to a FreeBSD 4.8 backup server. I have experienced the same problem at roughly the same point in the process on two occations. The laptop contains ~2.7Gb of data. On the first attempt we received this error at 2.3Gb and on the second at 2.4Gb. rsync error: partial transfer (code 23) at main.c(575) Would love to have a full backup of the

One thing that's bugged me is that some of the man page lines in the options summary are longer than 79 chars and wrap onto the next line. These are just one line summaries (detailed description appear later) so they can, and should, be terse. Here's an edited diff showing my proposed changes (and a 79 char ruler):

Hi, I'm trying to learn rsync and to aid this I'm trying some 'simple' syncronising over the net using SSH. What I can't find clearly explained in the docs is where to put the remote user password in the command line argument. For example I want to sync the two 'documents' directories - one on my local Linux box and another on a server in my office. The command

Hi there Is there a way with rsync to encrypt data at the source before transmitting? Not talking about the actually transmission, but the data itself. I've got a few department heads that want their data secured before it leaves their computer so that no one in the office can access the data except for them. Thanks.

Here's my command copied from a shell script:\ rsync --verbose --progress --stats --compress --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh --recursive --times --perms --links \ /home/* trt@xxxxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx:/remotebackups/ Here's some (a small part) of the output: jk/.recently-used 253 100% 0.00kB/s 0:00:00 rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "jk/.secpanel/.runfiles": Permission denied (2) stat

The rsync faq-o-matic was broken during the recent machine migration. Since there was relatively little useful content and a lot of unanswered or pointless questions, I am going to remove the links to it. If anyone feels like maintaining an FAQ please do so. -- Martin -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed... Name: not available Type:

Hi, I am trying to synchronise two directories on separate machines across a network using rsync, but I want to apply rsync whenever the contents of the directories are altered, rather than using a cron job. Does anyone have any ideas? We are running Redhat9.0. Thanks Henry

*The goal is to backup an remote incremental each day.* I trying to figure a way to run rsync via ssh from my local box to backup an remote box but only back incremental of changed data to a dir for that day. I guess I need a full copy of the data that is need to be backup from the remote box on my local box so rsync can compare the file different each date?

Hi, When I use --delete option, it seems to hang for over 8 hours on 4.5Gb of total data. But when I remove the --delete option, I can see it starts rsyncing. Has anyone encounter this problem before? --Tony Shum

Hello, we did some research and we would like to try to write a Tcl/Tk wrapper around rsync. Tcl/Tk - - is easy to write - has nice GUI library - is cross platform - has several installers Would somebody be interested to participate? Our goal is - To have a small Windows XP and OS X backup applications that allow the user to select a folder which is sent to a remote server. Incremental

I find that rsync is an excellent tool for backing up my large partitions, often over slower links on the Internet. I run a cron job every night to update backup mirrors. But occasionally I make large changes to the source disk, and the rsync update takes more thanb 24 ours to complete. Then I can have two or more rsyncs working over the same source and destination directories. What I really

Hi - there's a flag for rsync to compress the files in transit - is it possible to compress one side (target) with gzip and have rsync still work correctly? Any help would be appreciated. -- Ken
