Since rsync can now be configured with a different default remote shell than "rsh", I think the docs should be updated a bit. Anyone object to these changes? (Note that I also fixed the misstatement that ssh prefers blocking IO.) ..wayne.. ---8<------8<------8<------8<---cut here--->8------>8------>8------>8--- Index: options.c --- options.c 2002/05/03

Hi everyone! I'm trying to do something along those lines: rsync --rsh=ssh --archive foo:/data/* bar:/data/ Where foo is on the other side of a firewall, bar has no network connection to foo, and the machine I'm executing this on can connect to both of them. Unfortunately, copying from remote to remote doesn't seem to be possible with rsync. There's no mention in the Manpage as

Hi, I would like to use the new interface style: rsync --rsh="ssh -l username -i key" <src> username@host::module, however I get "reset by peer" errors. Can someone give some suggestions, please? Do I need to provide a symlink to the /etc/rysncd.conf file from within the user's dir? Note, I have the groups set to same as user and the group exists. Where does

>From what I understand, the problem is due to people's disagreement about what the "correct" behavior should be. I'm pretty sure that the following is the correct behavior from running rsh and ssh often (both fsecure and openssh). Lets say you have a stupid script that does while 1 do sleep 1 done Called foreverSleep on your remote host: rsh remotehost

Hello group, what is the preferred method to connect to asterisk cli over network? I need to run asterisk cli commands remotely. Sharing the unix socket through NFS, if that's working? Or any other approaches, despite using SSH or rlogin, rsh. Thank you Paul

I'm new to rsync and trying to configure it to run through either the daemon or rsh (ssh is not avalilable). Doing an 'rlogin production' results in a password prompt - which I want rid of, as we're basically going to have a robot user running a cron job that utilises rsync. I'm at a loss as to why I can't configure rlogin to user hosts.equiv or similar - any help on this

A while back I argued for adding a --with-rsh=CMD option to configure and got some general agreement that it would be a good thing (especially for systems that don't have rsh at all). However, the changes were never integrated into rsync. This patch adds the --with-rsh=CMD option to configure and modifies main.c to improve the blocking-IO setting code. The old code would set blocking_io to

Okay, I've narrowed the problem down quite a bit. As previously reported, in CentOS 5.2 I get this: $ cvs log Makefile poll: protocol failure in circuit setup cvs [log aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any) Turns out this is a problem with rsh: $ rsh khan ls connect to address 10.24.15.48 port 544: Connection refused Trying krb4 rsh... connect to address

Hi, Not sure when this stopped working, because I'm sure it used to. This is the cygwin build of rsync, with the standard cygwin rsh (which is a fairly old GNU inetutils 1.3.2). ~=> rsync --rsh=rsh -vv bibble: opening connection using rsh bibble rsync --server --sender -vvr . rsh: unknown option -- server Try `rsh --help' for more information. rsync: connection unexpectedly closed

hi... i've got an "access denied" issue with rsh on one of my boxes (and before we start, no "use ssh" comments.. rsh is what i'm dealing with for now!!) i've got a few boxes in my network, and i can successfully rsh into them with no issue. however, on one box, i can't access it using rsh, and i'm running out of things to try... kind of curious. i can

Hi, I can't get rsync from a PC to an HP-UX or Linux box to work, and am hoping for a pointer or two. I checked the FAQ and googled ... with no luck, so I hope this isn't a patently obvious newbie problem :) I just got interested in trying to use rsync to backup my WinXP PC to a Linux or HP-UX computer. I got the cygwin package from Robert Scholten's site at

I am doing rsync over a private network. Encryption is not required. Currently rsync over ssh works, but requires too many CPU cycles (especially when doing a lot of transfers) on a CPU-bound system. I need to use rsh instead. The problem is, I can either set rsh to allow transfers without a password, or it won't let me transfer files at all. I need rsh to ask for a password. The network

Hi there: As I posted a few days ago I have problems rsyncing two machines. I will add more logs to this e-mail hoping someone could help me.
