hi, I have an 20G archive of pic files which would have to be mirrored onto another server. It contains large JPEGs, around 10k files, one of the servers is located in Boston, the another is in Budapest, Hungary. I use rsync rsync://remote_box/remotedir localdir/ -zcvr --progress --size-only The issue is that the remote server sends the filelist very slow. Looking into the rsyncd process with

I have upgraded an rsyncd Server to 2.5.6.

Hi, I have installed rsync-2.4.6 version on Linux Redhat 6.2 (Kernel-2.2.14-5.0), after installed I tried to test the rsh and run "rsh remotehost /bin/true > out .dat". But it failed the error message was "Permission denied". I checked the permission all was okay, I forgot the rsh/csh methods and replaced by RSYNC_PROXY. Finally, it failed again. I would like to know that

There's a bug reported in Debian about the tty being screwed up by wierd filenames, see http://bugs.debian.org/bug=242300 On the one hand, find will also do this. On the other hand, ls will replace such chars with a question mark. Upon inspection, it appears to be fairly simple to also do this in rsync (in the rwrite() function). Here's a patch. Opinions? Perhaps don't do it

We are using rsync to transfer Oracle redo logs from one system to another over a WAN/VPN. The problem we are having is that 1 out of about 500 or so files sent is corrupted. The receiving Oracle server produces a message like this: --- Specify log: {<RET>=suggested | filename | AUTO | CANCEL} ORA-00283: recovery session canceled due to errors ORA-00368: checksum error in redo log block

Hello, I read the thesis about rsync and I would like to know if we can do something different with rsync. Imagine that I have one server that contains a set of data. This server is not very strong compare to the number of client that want to sync there data with the server. If we say that there s 1000 clients, each client, when sync, will send a list of keys to the server and the server must

Hi, I'm trying to get rsync 2.5.6 to authenticate users via openldap-2.0.23. I was looking through the mailing list archives and found a patch for rsync-2.4.6 that does this for me. I was just wondering if this is still valid, or if there has been a new patch or new implementation that has superceded this patch. Any help would be great. The message I am referring to is as follows:

Hi All, I'm trying to get rsync to proxy through an apache httpd server to an rsync server. On the proxy, which has a direct connection to the internet, I've stopped the firewall and unset HTTP_PROXY and RSYNC_PROXY. I've configured the httpd to allow proxy requests as follows: <IfModule mod_proxy.c># ProxyRequests On <Proxy *> Order deny,allow Deny from all

The handling of permissions in rsync (2.5.2) is nasty or broken. (tested platforms: Linux 2.4.x and Solaris 7) We have a directory which should only accessible to a group of users (test) : [sn@noname test]$ ls -lda /home/test drwxrws--- 2 root test 4096 Feb 13 15:44 /home/test Every user has an umask of 007 and his/her own default group: [sn@noname sn]$ id uid=500(sn)

Hi Folks -- I've recently had the need to add a piece of functionality to rsync that allows one to run 'rsync --daemon' (rsync in "rsync server" mode) over SSH. My main goal was to be able to use some of the features from rsyncd.conf(5) (notably modules) while still using SSH for authentication and network transport. Background: I wanted to have the capability of setting

Hello, Recently while working with rsync as the way to mirror large (several GB) archive on a regular basis, I came across several problems, and also got the ideas about their possible solutions - please could you investigate & consider implementing the features, described below, to future RSYNC releases ? - when the checksumming (consider very large archive, several GB) stage of rsync

I'm trying to set up a back-up file server (192.168.123.3) that will rsync files from the main production file server (192.168.123.4). The production file server is set up to run rsync --daemon, and I know it is doing so because on my backup server I can execute rsync 192.168.123.4:: and get the list of modules as follows: etc home samba Here's my /etc/rsyncd.conf file uid =

Is it possible to rsync through a firewall that requires HTTP basic authentication? The RSYNC_PROXY variable seems to correctly direct the request to go through the HTTP proxy server on the firewall, but there's no way to specify a username/password combo. The error message reported by rsync is "bad response from proxy - HTTP/1.1 401 Authentication required", which is not
