similar to: rsync hanging on Cygwin

I am attempting to use rsync to "mirror" data between several windows 2000 and windows XP systems. I am a UNIX person by nature, so decided the easiest way to go about doing this would be to use Cygwin with cron and ssh running as services, then run the rsync connection nightly through cron. Cygwin is installed on both systems and works perfectly. OpenSSH is installed and running,

For a recent project I needed to run Rsync as a service on Windows NT. The following is a link to the instructions I created to recreate my steps. http://members.home.net/cbollerud2/projects/rsync/NTService.html The "no-fork" patch used here is very similar to the "no-detach" option mentioned in many previous posts. I wish I could take credit for it, but I basically put

The legendary cygwin/rsync/ssh hang problem. I have been tracking this for a while now and can say that the latest cygwin install appears to have fixed the problem on one of the setups that has consistantly failed in the past. Have not put the update on to any production boxes yet, but it looks promising. From the threads that I have read on the cygwin mailing lists, it would seem that a

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

I've been attempting to create a new R package and recently removed the cygwin installation from my machine since R requires the use of the MingW tools for building an R package with C code. However, when I tried to build a source package, I found the following results: * removing junk files * building 'Rconifers_0.7-1.tar.gz' tar:

Hi, Got a strange problem with rsync ! Here is the story ... I got a linux rsync server running for 8 months without any problem (rsync 2.6.6 18) I got about a dozen of rsync clients (linux and windows, generally using a 2.6.5 rsync version) that synchronize their datas without any problem. Some of them only synchronize a few datas (10 GB) and some others synchronize large amount of data

Hi, I have rsync client and servers running under 3 Win2K boxes, and I can sync when the source is remote and the target is local, but when the source is local and the target is remote, I get the following error: rsync.exe --recursive /cygdrive/d/BILLS_CMS rsync://192.168.213.102/PWB3 rsync: read error: Connection aborted rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at

Hi, I'm trying to set up rsync to allow me to backup a number of Windows machine to a Windows XP Home server using Nasbackup. I can get rsync working fine but have been struggling for days to get user authentication working. /var/log/rsyncd.log 2005/09/27 13:46:37 [1352] rsyncd version 2.6.6 starting, listening on port 873 2005/09/27 13:47:50 [4088] auth failed on module modulename from

When using Cygwin Rsync 2.5.6/OpenSSH 3.6.1 for copying files from Win2k->Win2k, I get 2 or 3 hung processes on the receiving-side out of about every 50 runs. These hung processes cause the system to be unable to reboot(?!), requiring a hard reset. Killing the processes allows a graceful reboot every time. I'm currently running both ssh and rsync as services on the recieving side.

Hi! I'm trying to build LLVM under cygwin. I have the latest version of cygwin and CVS versions of llvm, llvm-test and llvm-gcc. make of tools only succeeded. make of frontend succeeded too but full make of llvm failed on crtend in llvm/runtime/GCCLibraries with the following message: llvm[0]: Compiling crtend.c for Debug build (bytecode) /bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected

I'm having prolems with cwRsync on server 2003. I'm getting pretty much identical results to this from the archive: http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-April/009187.html, and as far as I can see the only suggestion there was to check permissions. I have one further complication too- I'm trying to sync a remote server on to a vmware virtual disk that I've mounted using the

Not for me! I'm using cygwin-1.5.6-1, with rsync 2.5.7-2 (as reported by cygcheck -s). I've also tried with rsync-1.4.0 (as someone reported that worked), and rsync-2.6.0, both built from source. I get a 100% reliable hang after the first 0-128k of the first file. Command looks like: rsync -e ssh -ar sparky:"/cygdrive/c/www\ sites/" /cygdrive/c/wwwsites The directory tree

Hi I am trying to rsync some ghost images from a windows client running Windows XP to my Linux server. The problem is that rsync sends the complete files again even if nothing changed on the client side. The only way to avoid this is to use the "-c"-option but this takes nearly as long as uploading the files would. The server is running rsync-2.6.9, /etc/rsyncd.conf looks as follows.

Has anyone else experienced high CPU usage when using RSYNC in windows 2000 server? I am using the rsync.exe (and applicable DLL's) from the cygwin installation (I am not however running cygwin on this machine). The linux machine connecting to the windows rsync daemon has a very low performance hit when the session is running (see below). However, the windows machine, which has a much

I am having a problem getting my files backed up to the location I want to from a WinXP client going to a Debian rsync server. The following is sending asm/ to /home/robert/backup folder. rsync -avz /cygdrive/d/asm robert@192.168.1.102:backup/ My understanding of the rsync man page is that this is supposed to send asm/ to what the path that is defined in rsyncd.conf, mine is defined as /backup.

Hello! I have just read mails in thread <http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04a/0583.html> about problems with Cygwin and Rtools. I had the same problems and kept just the newest cygwin1.dll and things seem OK now. However I currently hit the problem with Perl (I have ActiveState and Cygwin Perl installed). When I tried to work with 'Rdconv' in Cygwin I get the following: $

Hello, Not sure if any of you can help me with a rsync challenge I am having, but here goes.
