similar to: not always making hard links?

I created ticket 961 "puppetd create too many/not closing TCP connections". I''m wondering if anyone else is seeing this? Depending on the client configuration a typical puppetd run will cause hunderds of simultaneous TCP connections to be opened to the puppet master. I''m gettting over 300 established connections for a single client in some cases. If the number of

Hi,everyone I have a storage server to provide samba service. Now I want to count total network flow which through samba . I tried ipac-ng which use iptables to count.But the port in the server is ranged when a client connect to it. so I first need to get the port and then add iptables rule in real time when a new client connect the server. if so,the iptables rules become much,and when a packet

I am rsyncing several hunderds of thousands of files in several directories. The way I got rsync to work for me was I wrote a script which NFS mounts the directory I am rsyncing first before starting, and then it goes through the directories and rsyncs them in bite sizeable chunks by going a few directories deep and starting there.. Is there any way to have this as an option inside rsync

The rsync 2.5.6 TODO file mentions the need for hard link test cases. Here is one in which a linked file is unnecessarily transferred in full. # Setup initial directories mkdir src dest dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024 count=10000 of=src/a 2>/dev/null rsync -a src/. dest/. ln src/a src/b # At this point, a & b exist in src; only a exists in dest. rsync -aHv src/. dest/.

Hi, recently we (oVirt) have started discussing whether the way virt-v2v handles import from OVA files is good. And I would be interested in ideas how it can be improved. It is likely somebody already gave some thought to this problem. TL;DR: Extracting the OVA before import is a problem for large VMs (in sizes of TBs). Can we change something to prevent the extraction and work directly over

Hello, I'm trying to enable hardlinks for messages sent to mutiple users. (I need this because I have mailing lists with 5000 users used many times a day). I've read that, to do this, I have to write a script that uses the /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver command in this way: deliver -p <FILE> -d <USER1> -d <USER2> Of course, I enabled the "socket listen"

Hi, Matthew -- Regarding your message of 05-Jul-2005 concerning rsync memory usage (sorry that I am not directly replying to it; I am not as yet subscribed to the list and my mailer doesn't allow me to hard-code an In-Reply-To or References header): While I applaud anyone who wants to encourage open-source development, it seems to me that, if in fact your problem is that you are running out

I've got a problem for which the combination of -R and --link-dest doesn't seem to be quite enough---and I may have discovered a few small bugs as well; test cases are below. [And if someone has a scheme for doing this that doesn't involve rsync at all, but works okay, I'm all ears as well---I'm not the first with this problem.] Here's my problem: I unfortunately need to

Hello, I have an el-cheapo shared hosting account on Dreamhost, and have had it for a very long time. For the most part everything usually works fairly well, considering I do keep a lot of folders, and mail, on some of my accounts. They are running dovecot, but still don't have a response as to the version, or doveconf -n output yet. My problem is, one of my most used folders, which was

In case others find this of value, I wrote a patch to rsync 2.5.6 to give rsync in --daemon mode the ability to run a pre-transfer and post-transfer command. These options handle our need to prepare a server to receive files and to do some processing after receiving files. The options for /etc/rsyncd.conf are pretransfer script = /some/command/to/run posttransfer script =

Hi there list :) I use backuppc to take backup of a bunch of hosts, but I ran into problems with the last one I set up, I can't find anything that is different on this one...but it won't work... So any hints would be greatly appreciated, here are the files ryncd.conf: log file=/var/log/rsyncd pid file=/var/run/rsyncd.pid [all] comment = All disk path = / use

Hi, I have to synchronize a directory tree of one machine with a tree on a remote machine. The tree on the remote machine is used read only. In addition I clone the current target tree before each synchronizing using hardlinks to be able to switch back to any previous version if the synchronization failed or if it contained any bad data. This works since 2002 using tar and a perl script. After I

Hi, a few months ago I posted a message about using LDAP to store rsync secrets in LDAP. I received a response about patching the rsync source code with a patch file. I am now finally getting around to doing this, and when I tried to use the patch command 'patch --verbose ./rsync-2.5.6/authenticate.c rsync-ldap.patch' , it gives me the following error: Hmm...
