I have a feature request for rsync. I tried posting it to the FAQ-o-matic, but that system didn't seem to be accepting new questions. I hope this is an okay list for the request--apologies if it's misdirected. Mac OS X provides support for the Mac file system resource forks and mac specific metadata (e.g., creator and file type). Most Unix applications ignore this information, but it

Respected Sir I want to know whther rsync supports resource fork on mac os x. If it doesnt is there any alternative to handle resource fork while doing remote replication between mac and other platforms. Amol Gajewar SPSOFT TECH India

I am wanting to rsync over mac files to a freebsd 4.5 box, but have recently found out that rsync does not preserve resource forks, or creator types and maybe some other things. But, has anybody had any experience like this, would tar'ing the files and then rsync'ing that seem a worthwhile solution. There's a lot, so testing is going slowly. Thanks!

We currently do backup using rsync amongst Linux and Solaris machines. Modulo an ACL issue that we had to patch, this is working extremely well. But I want to add our OSX machines to the mix. This is, unfortunately, leaving me confused about rsyncx. I can do the normal thing from OSX using rsync. But the page for rsyncx says - cryptically, in my ignorant opinion - that rsyncx adds support for

Hi all, I'm new to rsync and I'm trying to do a backup of my home directory, but I've a problem here. I'm not able to select the directory that I want to backup and exclude those I don't want to. I've googled a lot and I've also searched the rsync mailing list archive but without success, so I hope you can help me. Please forgive me if this is a trivial question.

I have a script that runs nightly as a cronjob to backup my drive to a USB drive https://pastebin.com/yivqrGUC On the command line I use the --timeout option. Is this sufficient to ensure that if the external drive somehow becomes unmounted that rsync will gracefully fail without trying to write to the hard drive instead of the USB drive? rsync -vaWSHpl --timeout=15 --delete-excluded --filter

hi will the official rsync version in future maybe support HFS(+) filesystem, like rsyncx does right now? i ask because the rsyncx version dosen't run on my linuxbox and the feature is only supported if all systems use rsyncx. regards sam

I'm using a javascript program to execute rsync 2.5.6 compiled with cygwin on Windows XP Pro machines. These backup the user's "My Documents" folder to a Linux server running rsync 2.5.6 in daemon mode when the user logs in to XP and certain conditions are met (e.g. user hasn't backed up for a few days, user on the network etc). This works great except every now and then

Hello, anybody has a clue why this happens? The scenario: Each night I create LVM snapshot of my volume which contains some virtual disk images (VirtualBox VDIs). Then I rsync the content of one of the snapshot directories to a backup server. Each file size is between 1.3 GB and 6GB. I run the following commmand: sudo -u rsyncbackup rsync -avzP --exclude-from /home/rsyncbackup/excludefile -e

I'm getting a "bad address" error which is causing my rsync process to bomb out. I'm running RsyncX 2.1, in daemon mode on the source machine, with a script to pull the information to the backup server. Both servers are Xserves running OS X Server 10.2.8. Rsync target is on an Xserve RAID. The RAID has 350GB free, so I'm not running into a disk full situation. My command

Hi I am a rsync (on Mac OS X, RsyncX version with extended HFS+/-eahfs forks) beginner (I merely use it for backing up my desktop machine to a bootable external firewire volume, so that I can resume work in case of a harddrive disaster) and I got these messages: mknod "/Volumes/backup/Applications/Plone2/Sites/Default/var/zopectlsock" failed: Invalid argument mknod

Hello, I am still ironing out the bugs in my rsync backup soloution. As I said earlier I have it working working initiating from the macs to the linux server, sortof. The sortof part is what I am trying to eliminate. 2 problems: first rsync seems to be filling up the disk on one of my client OSX machines. df showed a little over a gigabyte when i started the backup of the ~=30GB drive I had

I have been trying to use rsyncx to generate a script for rotating backups but it seems to me that the --link-dest option doesn't work properly in my configuration. Instead of creating hard links for all unchanged files it seems that rsync copies everything, as if --link-dest hasn't been specificed. Can somebody clarify what's going on? My script is ptovided below: #rotating backup
