warning: rsync/sysadmin newbie question... I want to sync the web directory from my production server to my backup server (through ssh). rsync is working fine, except that it doesn't seem to authenticate my rsync user which is not a system user.

Dear List, I'm confused when we will run into "if (motd && *motd)"? As I have found that Globals is set 0 during initialization, and I didn't find anywhere else assign the value. If so, should we remove this section? Or there might be some where I missed? Please correct me, if I'm wrong. Thanks in advance. clientserver.c #line 147~160 > if (!am_client) {

Is there a way to make the rsync client suppress the motd without suppressing other messages when connecting to an rsync server? What I want is to run rsync from cron and have it produce output only when any files have been downloaded or deleted and whenever errors have happened. Otherwise, I want it to be quiet. This doesn't seem to be possible with rsync as of version 2.5.7. When I use the

Hello, I did make a stupid fault: not commiting changes to version control :-( After the installation of puppet-dashboard, I added a recipe to add report = true to puppet config files on clients. Now all Puppet clients don''t update because of an error... What can be the various reasons for an ''400'' error?? I guess it has something to do with rights. Jun 28 09:52:36 pm

Hello, I have read through the list of previous issues regarding this issue but haven't been able to resolve mine. I apologize in advance for the long text and am probably doing some simple typo. I have two servers in my setup: *Server 1* Doing rsync with --link-dest daily and working as expected. I'm getting the hard links in the new daily directories. *Server 2* Running rsync daemon

I am attempting to utilize the exclude from option in my rsync configuration file (rather than maintain lists on users machines) but it does not appear to be working. One example, I placed *.mp3 in the file to keep them from syncing mp3 files to the server and jamming up space. But rsync just seems to ignore this and syncs the files anyway without any errors to the syslog. All of my

I am trying to set up an rsync server on windows 2000 and red hat linux 7.1, but unsuccesfully. I haven't been able to find detailed information in the man pages about this issue, which makes it quite hard to figure out.

Hi All: I am new to rsync so be gentle with me. I have been able to get rsync working enough to be able to list modules but not transfer files.

Hi, I was just using ssh to access an IPv6 machine. ssh root at 2002:1234::1 (example address) works, while scp root at 2002:1234::1:/etc/motd . works not, scp parses this as hostname 2002 and file path 1234::1:/etc/motd It's a syntax problem. The manpage addresses this problem for -L and -R arguments, but not for scp arguments. Any idea how to deal with this problem? regards
