similar to: User NONE using rsync in Windows server

Hi all, I'm rsyncing a windows 2003 client to a windows 2003 server using the cwrsync installation package. The trouble is that the permission rights set by rsync on the destination server are very restrictive and don't allow another application to access the files. I'd like to change that. However, the GID and UID parameters in the rsyncd.conf file don't seem to manage that.

If this is not the correct place to post this I apologize. I am having a problem with rsync not setting the correct permissions on the rsync'd files. I have rsync 2.6.3 running on a Windows 2003 server using cygwin. I rsync the fedora core 2 updates to my server for internal use. The problem is after the rsync, the header.info file is no longer accessible to anyone and the other rsync'd

Case point: 2 Servers (both with Windows Server 2k3 & cygwin). Running ssh on the destination server. Problem: The rsync user will take ownership over any files copied over from the source server. This takes ownership away from the administrators group, thus disallowing inherited permissions. Is there any way around not taking ownership away from the administrators group and giving it to the

I am trying to upload a directory structure with rsync via ssh from one domain to another. I would like the target files (which may or may not already exist on the target machine) to assume the security permissions of the target directory they are placed into, since the target machine lies in a different domain. Currently, when I upload these files they seem to assume some strange random

Hi, the following patch checks if OpenSSH is running under a Cygwin version >= 1.3.2 which allows switching user context without password. Otherwise sshd allows changing the user context only if password authentication is used as it was before.

I am trying to setup a windows 2000 server with rsync and cygwin. I think I almost have it working except that when the file copy is finished my files are nowhere to be found on the windows server. I am not getting any error messages. I am connecting from a win98 machine on the same network. Any ideas on how I can get this working or get more info to debug. Thanks.

I've just tried upgrading to cwrsync 2.1.0 (Rsync version 3.0.0 protocol version 30) between 2 Windows XP Pro sp2 machine across the Internet. I used: SET CYGWIN=nontsec SET HOME=c:\cwrsync\bin C:\cwrsync\bin\rsync -za -u -P --delete --recursive /cygdrive/c/test2/ stuart@test.address.co.uk::test/ When I run the above batch script on the remote machine I get this odd output.

Hi all, (i am new at rsync althought using it for a year and half) i was unable to find a direct answer to this questions : _does rsync under windowz really support ACL replication ?_ if I "rsync" a directory, files inherit from the acl of that dir. but if special acls are setted on some files these are lost in the replication : only inherited acls are written i tried this with rsync

Hi, I'm using cwrsync with rsync 3.0.8 atm and after syncing a file to Strato HiDrive and back to the local machine the new permissions contain this entry: None (UK-DT-01\None) with Read, Execute; Read and Write (allowed) permissions. It takes a few seconds before this entry is displayed with this name, in the meantime it is only a sid (and the user icon has a red question mark in the

NetWare 6 sp4 server to windows 2000 server using cwrsync 1.2.1 when the cwrsync service writes the files to the server it uses it's own username and permissions. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get this to write the files so common users and delete and change stuff? would the perverse permissions work with windows? Thanks, Matt Vorwald Network Engineer Lumber

I know you guys hate questions like this, but has anyone had experience with a particular Windows client they would endorse? I need to sync some Windows boxen.

I am running rsync 3.0.4 on Cygwin. Before, when I resumed interrupted rsyncs, every file would be re-copied all over again. I struggled to find an answer until now I found it: I needed to specify --modify-window=1, since one of the disks is FAT32. How could rsync be improved so that others won't have to struggle so much? Here are some options: 1. At the start of each run, rsync should

Running Rsync on a Windows box. Trying to do replication, and it doesn't seem to be working as expected. I'm using -r. I put test.txt in the source dir. It copied over just fine. Deleted test.txt from the source. And it still exists in the target. Any ideas? Also, using robocopy, you can tell it to wait for X number of changes and loop. Can this be done with rsync? Thanks!

Hello all, This is my first post to the group, so please go easy on me. I've setup a cwRsync server on a Windows 2003 Server and an XP client. I have setup rsync to copy a directory from the server to the client, and the files transfer perfectly. The only problem is that the permissions on the destination are wrong. I want the permissions on the destination to end up being the

Hi As I want to automate my Desktop backup process, I'm currently trying to finilize a CMD (Windows XP batch) file in order to save different data (outlook.pst, \desktop, \docs, \Favorites ....). My problem is that even with this parameter SET RSYNC_PASSWORD=xxxx It still ask me for a password, blocking of course all the process automation. I'm running either on my Linux backup box

I'm running on Red Hat Enterprise 3 machine with ~700Gb of Storage backing up to a similar machine using rsync backups running 6 times a day on various directories in /home/. The inital rsync copied roughly 150gb. Everything appears to be backing up correctly so no loss of data which is good :) The problem is that he backup server is not removing data that has been removed from the primary

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

1. Does anyone know what may be happening here? When I try to map a drive from a PC, I get the following error: "The account is not authorized to log in from this station.". I can map the drive just fine from my PC. Does anyone know what may be going on here? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 2. Also, whenever I use SWAT, it takes a long time for the information to be

Hello all, Since the rsync on Panther many things changed in my professional life. This project is abandoned although it should work. But this you already know. What's new? On my new job I have several servers to administrate. Servers that aren't backed up (sic). So, there's why I'm back to rsync. The backup plan I would like: 1) Client side: PCs running rsync (or
