I am trying to set up rsync as a daemon under WindowsXP (professional) in order to be able to backup this machine on to a linux server. I am struggling with an issue I don't understand. I don't know whether it is an Rsync issue or a Cygwin issue, so I am asking both mailing lists. My WindowsXP machine has ip address 192.168.0.25 and name rabbit.home My Linux machine has ip address

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

Hi! I'm having a bit of a problem setting up an rsync operation between two Windows 2000 servers. On one of the machines I have started an rsync Daemon (service, started as administrator) using the lines below. On the other machine I do a rsync -Pzrtvpo /cygdrive/d/root/Folder administrator@192.168.2.4::root What happens is that all transferred files (no problem with the actual transfer)

Hello I have setup a mirror script on our network, and I have some problem to preserve ownership of the files transferred. This problem is causing me a bit of headache as this file transfer is for some production file, where if there is not the right permission/ownership the program crashes, and it keep crashing. I am overcoming the problem by defining manually the ownership as

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'm trying to get rsync running on a Windows 2k box (my tape backup server) to remotely back up stuff from a few unix boxes. Not my favored constellation, but there's not much I can do about that. I'm hoping someone could give me a quick tip or two on getting rsync working as a Win2k service. I'm not real proficient with Win2k, so be gentle. The posts I could find

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 all, Thank-you to all the developers for rsync. It is very well done. I have rsync running on various platforms connecting to the same server and all is good. Except for 1 Win2000 Prof. server. I backup several directories with various permissions and users successfully. However, there are 2 directories that even though the permissions are the same as other directories that are

On Linux, an rsync command and exclude_file contents of: # cat exclude_file /etc/alsa # rsync -a --delete --delete-excluded --exclude-from=exclude_file /etc server::module properly excludes /etc/alsa but not any file within /etc's directories that is named alsa. On Windows I don't seem to be able to reliably emulate this: C:\Scripts\Backup\rsyncd>type rsyncd_exclude

Hello, I've been trying to get rsync to work in daemon mode between two win2k boxes without success. The client rsync invariably comes back with: rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(151) With cygwin1.3.3/rsync2.4.6, cygwin1.3.9/rsync2.5.1 or cygwin1.3.9/rsync2.5.2 (and with various patches, principally those

Hi, Cygwin only: Under some circumstances, the sshd service gets accidentally started *before* the network service has been started up. The reason that this can happen is, that the sshd service gets installed without a dependency to the network service in contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config so far. The below patch fixes that by adding a dependency to the "tcpip" Windows service. This

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi: First let me say that rsync/cwrsync is amazing ! And sorry ! if I'm bothering you with this question... I need to sync my work files from the WinXP Pro machine to our Solaris one... so far so fine.. My problem is when I specify the path on the rsyncd.conf (cwrsync) I have tried many combinations from:

Got rsync daemon working, but I am trying to set some variables in the rsyncd.conf file: here is my rsyncd.conf file: use chroot = false strict modes = false hosts allow = * log file = cygdrive/f/rsyncd.log uid = 0 gid = 0 # Module definitions [BackupArea] path = /cygdrive/f/backup/test/%computerName% <---------- This is how I want it to work... read only = false transfer logging = yes

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

I can't seem to get the hardlinks to work in windows via --link-dest. It just refuses to find the files in the directory and make a hard link. Here's the setup. -I run 2 rsyncs from batch files called sync.bat and sync2.bat. -I'm connected to the server via a mapped network drive, we'll call it 'z'. -I then run the client, on the destination, once to pull the data
