similar to: rsyncd.conf without --daemon?

Hello, I think i may have found a bug in the "max clients" option in rsyncd.conf [we use rsync-2.5.5; All platforms I tried (Irix-6.5.14 and various linux flavours) show the behaviour explained below] The manpage says: |max connections | The "max connections" option allows you to specify | the maximum number of simultaneous connections you | will allow to

Hi, I am trying to transfer some files to a remote rsync server. I have to preserve the ownership of these files in the remote server for future possibility of copying them back. The command I am using is: rsync -Cav /var/log/mp3log server2::var/log/mp3log I have tried to add -o and -g options but still can't reach my purpose. I also remember to add a same user name to the remote rsync

You're set, unless you declined ssh in your cygwin installation (without cygwin, you're not doing rsync from windoze). It's just like unix, in that case. (Bonus clue: Under related commands for ssh, you'll find ssh-keygen). If you don't actually need to secure your content (you're not naked on the internet, for instance), you can just let rsync use plain old rsh

I compiled and tried rsync 2.5.0 but could not get the server running. loadparm.c:string_set() now calls free() which it did not do in 2.4.6 and this free() tries to free memory that was not allocated with malloc. Here is a gdb run (done after adding return before fork() in become_daemon) which shows where it crashes and what my minimal config file for demonstrating the bug was. The config file

I just installed rsync on two machines, I think I'm a complete moron, and I need a clue bat. The remote machine's /etc/rsyncd.conf (just for testing): use chroot = no log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid lock file = /var/run/rsync.lock [auth] path = /var/www/auth comment = apache authentication files. read only = yes Then for a test, I fired up

Thought that you are able to add a simple - + with paths or file names at the bottom of a file and run an rsync and those are then recognized inclusions or exclusions from the synchronization -- Jason G Helfman Network Administrator BizRate.com 310.754.1264 desk

Hi, is it possible to use the rsyncd Daemon without any logging. I would like to make a network synchronization on a specific directory in a small network (10 Hosts) . These synchronisation should happen every 10 secounds. My logfile increases to fast with the logging option therefore it is better to use rsync without any logging. Thanks for answering. Please apologize my bad english. I hope

Hello, evevryone. thank you for your mails.

What

Hi folks, Are there any tricks known to let rsync operate on huge tar files? I've got a local tar file (e.g. 2GByte uncompressed) that is rebuilt each night (with just some tiny changes, of course), and I would like to update the remote copies of this file without extracting the tar files into temporary directories. Any ideas? Regards Harri

Gang, I've read the manual(s), surfed google, spent about 5 hours on this, to no avail.... I'm trying to run rsync in server mode and it appears to start normally, but it refuses all connections (refuses connection when I tried telnetting in on localhost 873!). I've turned off all firewalls on this server (do I dare tell you guys that?...), which is fine: it is on a local network. I

Hello, Rsync is working great for me right now, using version 2.6.5 on two Solaris 9 V100 servers. Box A is the source and box B is the destination, and also box B is my rsync server box. Box A is a rsync client. Yesterdar from Box B I pulled 250 meg just fine from box A with rsync. Today from the client I want to just copy over to the server what files have changed today. So my command

Ok, I just setup the log file and this is what I see there: rsync on cdrive/Temp/pix.log from admx (141.214.137.139) transfer interrupted (code 3) at flist.c(812) I had to change [cdrive] from path = "c:\" to path = c: to get rid of '@ERROR: chdir failed' error. I am getting close but still need some help. Thanks in advance. Nishi > -----Original Message----- From:

Hi, I have installed rsync on CentOS4, Installation went through ok and I tested it as well by copying a folder to mounted tap backup drive. But now I need to run rsync as daemon(server), trying to find /etc/rsyncd.conf file but there is no rsyncd.conf file exists under /etc directory. Having read online I found out that /etc/rsyncd.conf file needs to be manually created. Is there any sample

I've been reading through the man pages for rsync, yet I can't seem to find a way to provide progress indication and/or current download speed for total and/or individual files... Can this be done with rsync? Is it an implemented feature. I thought -v or -vv would do the trick, but it doesn't... Cheers, -- Dag Rune Sneeggen Romolslia 23B 7029 Trondheim Norway dudcore Inc.

With all the different features people want - almost makes me wonder if having an actual scripting language for rsync may be the best solution? Thought of integrating Perl in with rsync so it could use Perl to calculate its include/exclude lists and/or whatever else? I just say Perl as an example - could be something or somethings better to use than Perl that I don't know about. Eli.

Hi guys, I am experiencing a very strange problem with passwords and username with rsync. I have a "auth users" line in my /etc/rsyncd.conf file (see below) and a corresponding username and password in my /etc/rsyncd.secrets. The strange thing is is that authentication for the module listed in /etc/rsyncd.conf (unixadm) only works IF the username in /etc/rsyncd.secrets is the same as

Hi all, I was wondering if it will require any major rewrites of the daemon/client to include limits on the data transfer rate ? Alexei.
