Hi, I want to use rsync from a script. Before that I am trying it from command line. I use it as, $ rsync --password-file=pass -e ssh -av legal.txt accounts@127.0.0.1:/home/accounts accounts@127.0.0.1's password: I don't want to be prompted for password. $ ls -l pass -rwx------ 1 payal payal 9 Sep 30 19:11 pass* $ cat pass accpass123 [Don't worry it is not on real

The password is related to a rsync server, when you communicate through the rsync port: grep rsync /etc/services rsync 873/tcp # rsync rsync 873/udp # rsync the authentication therefore is done against the rsync serverpassword. Yo wanted to "file in" the ssh password? Not possible in this way ... Rainer -----Urspr?ngliche

Hi, I hacked rsync version 2.6.0 to support a file size limit. I did this, because I could not find a way to do this with the existing rsync options. I've been receiving the rsync digest for several months, and habe not seen mention of this type of feature., This allows rsync to 'prune' out LARGE files when doing the sync. I've been using this for about a month now to provide

Hi, I have 2 ftp servers with 3 identical users. I want server B to be updated of server A. Whatever changes mmade by users on server A should be made on server B say every 5 hours. Is rsync the right tool to use here? Can rsync be used such that only changed files are downloaded? Thanks a lot and bye.

Hello, I have inherited a setup where there are 2 AIX 5.1 systems in 2 separate sites. There are large database files that are backed from each site to the other via rsync. Currently, it is using rsync version 2.5.4. It does it via ssh with the options -avz. This has all been merrily plodding along for some time. There is one file that is over 45 GB, and it started having trouble with that

Hi, This is the first time I have setup rsync.conf like, max connections = 20 syslog facility = local3 read only = true hosts allow = 192.168.10.10 [qmail-control] comment = qmail-control path = /var/qmail/control read only = yes list = yes uid = root gid = root Then from 192.168.10.10, I tried, rsync -avz -e ssh

Hello, I seem to be having a performance problem with rsync. I have done some testing of rsync and ftp. If I do a transfer (either way) with ftp, I get about 500 Kbytes/sec. Using rsync to do the same transfer (either way) I only get about 50 Kbytes/sec. I am only testing straight file copies. There is a firewall which I believe is configured properly. The ethernet interface is running at 10

I'm using a mixture of FreeBSD w/ ZFS+snapshots and rsync to backup all the servers at my day job. This works pretty good overall but on one server it's not working so well :) We have an Exchange 2003 server with 4 separate mail store databases. One of them is roughly 900GB the others are ~200GB, ~160GB, and ~50GB. Rsync seems to spend a lot of time trying to find the differences in

Hello again, I encountered something amazing. First I thought there is not enough memory allowed through ulimit. ulimit is now set to (almost) 512MB but rsync still gets out fo memory at 8MB. Can anyone tell me why? That's my configuration: rsync version 2.6.2 from AIX 5.3 to SuSE Linux 9 (also has rsync 2.6.2) ulimit -a (AIX) ulimit -a AIX (source): -------------------------

Hi, I am testing rsync and it looks as though it is copying over the entire file which doesn't sound right. System: Windows 2003 Rsync.exe cygpopt-0.dll cygwin1.dll I have just tested rsync with a 571Mb zip file containing our Backup Exec installation source. The command I am running is: rsync -avp --delete --progress --stats /cygdrive/c/rsync_test/ "/cygdrive/Y/" >

Hello, we are using rsync on AIX and run into out of memory. There have been some threads about out of memory and FAX tells that this is a known problem. So I need to finde a workaround for this. Please help me! We try to sync many (nnnn) Thumbnails of size 2k between AIX and Linux with rsync -a --delete --rsh=ssh <source dir> <user>@<server>:<target dir> I

Hi, An offtopic quesiton, but I could not think of asking any other list where it might be answered. I have a client uploading a few designs (25-30 Mbs) daily at a remote ftp server. We download them in morning. Since we have a slow connection we daily waste a couple of hours downloading it. Is there any way I can download them at night. The only thing is that I am not sure of the time they

Dear rsync devs, I recently concluded a bug hunt to trace why my rsync-ing to an SBC was much slower than the corresponding iperf3-reported speeds. To give a concise summary of the situation, in slow wifi links using SSH with ProxyCommand tremendously speeds up things: $ dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1M count=50 of=sample.data 50+0 records in 50+0 records out 52428800 bytes (52 MB, 50

Dear all, I have 3 load balancing servers. Each user may login to different servers to upload their data, lets say, a company logo. That's why i tried to use rsync to synchronize the uploaded logo and some other necessary modules. This mean, each server can be a source or destination server to the another 2 servers. However, problem occurs when user tried to delete the logo. Maybe he access

Hi, I needed to filter content of files (encrypt), before they are sent over the network to backup server. The easiest way to do this was modifying Kyle Jones's "--dest-filter" patch. Somebody was asking there this feature in the past, so I'm sending this patch to list. Implementation details: -filtering disables rsync alogrithm -source filter makes temporary files in /tmp

Clean copy. I even used the -W flag to see if it made a difference but, nope. I'm testing this same test on some of my other servers too. See if there's any common-ground I can find. On another servers (MS SQL Server) with faster disks I tried a similar test just now. There's only the C drive on this server but I used my same test file from the other server and used rsync (3.1.0)
