For some reason when using -owner -group my files end up being nobody:nobody on the destination..? This is Solaris 9. Jeremy S. Loukinas

Hi everybody - I'm trying to write a Perl wrapper for some rsync tasks that need doing. Problem is, there's some sort of odd interaction going on between Perl and the daemon mode communication for the rsync client, and I'm at my wit's end in trying to figure it out. Here's the Perl script: #####################################################

Is it possible to configure rsync in server mode, to gain access to root protected files, without the user having to log in as root through ssh? I'd prefer to login as a regular user through ssh and access an rysnc server on the host that's running as root. As far as I can tell, however, that's not possible...am I wrong?

Hi, I use rsync 2.6.0 version to synchronize 125GB data, I got the following error messages by using the following command: /usr/bin/rsync --rsync-path=/usr/bin/rsync --rsh="/usr/bin/ssh -C" --stats --timeout=43200 -avSH --delete <source path> <dest path> The error messages: io timeout after 43200 seconds - exiting rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at

I have tried to compile 2.0.4b and 2.0.5a on AIX3.2.5 and it gives a problem when I test it with "smbclient -L bigserver", that was discussed in the archives. I thought it was fixed. It gives:- [1999/07/22 20:57:05, 0] smbd/uid.c:(68) Couldn't set effective uid to 207. Currently set to (real=0,eff=0). Error was Not owner [1999/07/22 20:57:05, 0] smbd/service.c:(463) Can't

I'm using rsync to mirror my Sharp SL-5500 Linux PDA home directory to my Linux desktop over a TCP/IP-on-USB link. I'm running the following command as root on the 5500: /home/QtPalmtop/bin/rsync -av /home/zaurus \ 192.168.129.1::zaurus I'm running the rsync server out of xinetd. I have verified with 'ps' that the server, when it starts, is running as root. The files are

I'm having an issue with the --suffix and -b flags - I've tried the following commands: rsync -avbr --backup-dir=/rsyncbackup rsynctest user@server.com::module rsync -avbr --backup-dir=/rsyncbackup --suffix="" rsynctest user@server.com::module and either way, I wind up with a tilde as a suffix on all the files moved into the backup directory at time of synchronization.

Hi there, I have tried enough of it and couldnt get any where. I have a Redhat 9.x box with rsync I want to backup contents on the RH to Win2K box. I have copied required cygwin DLL's and rsync.exe,ssh-keygen.exe and ssh.exe. I set up my pub rsa id and all that stuff. My problem is here: I have a batch file which logs itself. The batch file contains some logging commands and rsync -avze ssh

Hi, I've been experimenting with using Lazy_Expunge as a tool to enforce document retention policies (by keeping users from deleting emails forever, instead expiring them after a set time). My problem is, how do I keep the user from deleting/expunging mails *inside the expunge folder itself*? I am using dovecot-1.2.10 built from FreeBSD's ports tree, and I am using the following

Problem: Using MySQL storage for the user and password db with MD5-CRYPT hashes, Dovecot fails to successfully authenticate when the MD5-CRYPT or MD5 settings are specified as default_pass_scheme in dovecot-mysql.conf. Dovecot /does/ successfully authenticate against MD5-CRYPT hashes when default_pass_scheme is set to CRYPT, which according to the docs should be DES encryption. (I do not

Hi, from a generally pleased new rsync user. I have setup a number of services to be accessible via SSH. For most of them, it has been possible to arrange that clients can use a key agent and ssh's level 2 protocol to gain access without the need of entering passwords more than once, at the start of a session (assuming their keys are not stored in the clear). Most of these services can be

Hi. I need to create a lot of directories, just the same with remote's /var, but I only need the directories, the files inside those sub-directories in /var/ are not necessary for me. I know "find+cp" can do, but I would like to use the archive mode, i.e. I need the original permision, owner, group... Can I make it using rsync ? If so, please tell me how. Thank you in advance. --

The following snippet suggests that there is either a bug in qr(,LAPACK=T), or some bug in my understanding. Note that the detected rank is correct (= 2) using the default LINPACK qr, but incorrect (=3) using LAPACK. This is running on Linux Redhat 9.0, using the lapack library that comes with the Redhat distribution. I'm running R 1.7.1 compiled from the source. If the bug is in my

I'm trying to use rsync under Cygwin on 2 machines running Windows 2000 Server There's a 2MB link between them and I'm using SSH setup for a passwordless connection rsync hangs part way through transfers and when run again hangs at the same place in the same files with no explanation no matter what verbosity level I set it to. Each time it hangs it leaves an rsync process running on

Hello Guyz, I am facing a problem while trying to compile ezstream 0.1.2. First some information about my setup: nsti# uname -a FreeBSD nsti.localdomain 4.9-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p7 #0: Thu May 13 21:46:04 IST 2004 prince@nsti.localdomain:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NSTI i386 nsti# pkg_info BitchX-1.1 "An alternative ircII color client with optional GTK/GNOME

Rsync counts directories as files when it's creating the file list, but does not count them as files in the "files transferred" statistic. Example output from my backup logs, when initializing a new backup volume (rsyncing a set of data to a completely empty filesystem): [2004-07-09 03:03:37] - Number of files: 75007 [2004-07-09 03:03:37] - Number of files transferred:

It occurs to me that it would probably avoid a LOT of newbie confusion if instead of "bytes written" and "bytes read", the stats said "bytes sent" and "bytes received". Anybody who doesn't know better intutively tends to grasp "bytes written" as what got written *to the hard drive* rather than what got sent over the pipe. Jim Salter JRS

A couple of ideas about things that would be nice to see in rsync: 1. a "0.5v" option - something that would just show a progress either by file or by megabyte, ie "processing file 1,048 of 9,032" or "processing: 832 of 3,459 MB". The standard "verbose" is good for troubleshooting, but it's not very useful for gauging how much has been done and how

(On Unix/Linux) Is it possible to set the --no-save command line option as an option in the .Rprofile file. I have looked in the sources and do not see any obvious (user initiated) ways of changing the command line defaults, but I am hoping I have missed something. I *know* I can write my own shell script wrapper that calls R with whatever arguments I want (and I do that). However there
