If you've been watching CVS, you may have noticed that I checked in some new files named wildmatch.c and wildmatch.h. This code implements the shell-style wildcard matching with rsync's extension that "**" matches a "/" but "*" and "?" does not. I have also checked in a new test module which has allowed me to test a few things on all the machines

This adds support for whitelisting the acceptable options in the "refuse options" setting in rsyncd.conf. It introduces "!" as a special option string that refuses most options and interprets any following strings as patterns of options to allow. For example, to allow only verbose and archive: refuse options = ! verbose archive The "!" does't refuse no-iconv,

I am an rsync newbie trying to setup rsync on a HP UX 11.0 server, but am running into problems in my "make". I am using gcc version 3.3.2 and rsync-2.6.6.tar.gz. Would any of you have ideas on troubleshooting this issue? I haven't had much luck googling info on this, with the exception of switching from HP's simple c compiler to gcc. The warnings and errors I am recieving

Hi, everybody here! I hope not all is old stuff, because I only scanning subjects fast in this list. (and sorry for my worse english, too.) 1) rsync 2.6.0 on HP-UX (HP-UX server B.11.00 U 9000/803) Running as server: crashed always after receiving data. The data is transmitted correctly, and the server dies afterwards. (rsync2.5.7 works anyway) (about rsync2.6.2 later) 2) compiling

I've been playing around with the "--skip-compress" option in rsync 3.1.2 and it appears to not selectively skip the compression of files with suffixes in the list. As a basic example, if I transfer two files, a ".log" file and a ".grb2" file, I get the following results: no compression sent 156,412,712 bytes received 110 bytes 62,565,128.80 bytes/sec total

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Recent versions of rsync have a "regression test" called "chmod-option" that when run fails, this should be causing rsync to be rejected as broken by all distros and sysadmins. A bit of research show that no one has mentioned this test since it was last worked on in late September, nor does it show up as a current bug

Ah ah, the demo effect... just after I said I did not have much issues with repos... ^_^ A collegue installed some packages (for perconna) and since then a server insists on replacing 2 base packages with 2 rfx packages, even when I gave a lower priority to rfx...

There is a small bug in the build system of 2.6.0: If the directory you build rsync in differs from the sourcedir "make test" failes: $ tar -xzf ~/rsync-2.6.0.tar.gz $ mkdir build $ cd build $ ../rsync-2.6.0/configure .... $ make test ....

Wayne, i like the diff -u idea. I find -c awkward. It seems to me that the shell script could test for support of -u and if present use it instead of -c. ala if [ -n "`diff -u /dev/null /dev/null 2>&1`" ] then difftype="-c" else difftype="-u" fi diff $difftype "$2"/"$f" "$3"/"$f" || failed=YES or something

hi all- been reading through the archives but I still can't seem to find a solution to my problem. I am using rsync to keep mirror copies of content which is being served (via http) on both the sender and receiver. The files on average are 20-50mb each, (mostly already in a compressed format... mp3, etc) and both sender and receiver pushes around 30mbps on average. the sender is a

Recently various needs for multiple version handling were discussed and I put forward a plan of mine. Subsequently the proposal for a --compare-file=<FILE> switch had support, so I have implemented this. I have also implemented an experimental --compare-auto which decides which file to match against using a rule. Instructions for patch: 1. Install rsync-2.5.6 source 2. "patch -p1

Hello Everyone, I am trying to exclude a directory (and all file and sub-directories under that directory) when using rsync. I have spent two days on google, but everything that I can find there involves excluding individual files, not an entire directory. I have tried the following commands, but in each case the remove_dir and all of its sub-directories and files area still sent to the remote

I got curious as to how rsync operates, and got a few tests going under ethereal. The results confused me more. I created /tmp/test-out/ containing two different text files - one named "file.txt" and the other "data.gz". ie. data.gz wasn't actually compressed - it was actually text. I then created an empty directory on a rsync server to replicate that data to. I did a

When dealing with object holding pointers that are only valid during a single session, it would be convenient to exclude them from being saved with the session image. (I am assuming that `quit` calls `save.image` before quitting or is it internal?) Currently they are saved with the pointer converted to NULL. Its a bit surprising for users not realizing the object is no longer valid. My thought is

I use rsync to mirror several servers. I run RH7.3 My rsyncd.conf file is: motd file = /etc/rsync.d/rsync.motd log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid lock file = /var/run/rsync.lock hosts allow = 10.1.2.200 10.1.2.201 hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 use chroot = yes max connections = 3 #syslog facility = [website] path = /var/www/website comment = Connex Live WWW

I run a CentOS/Fedora mirror with rsync access.

Hello ! I`m trying to find a way to use lzo compression for the data being transferred by rsync. rsync only supports gzip (or maybe ssh -c, which is also zlib), which gives cpu intensive workload - and this cannot be exchanged by a commandline param like we have with tar (--use-compress-program=....) i like to use lzo because it does much faster compression than gzip. I read the following in
