similar to: Symlinks

Hi all. This looks like a common question. I want to backup a dir, in which i put some symlinks, so it looks like machinegun:/tmp/daily_backup # ls -la total 8 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2010-02-17 17:41 . drwxrwxrwt 19 root root 4096 2010-02-17 17:30 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2010-02-17 17:41 cgi-bin -> /srv/www/cgi-bin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2010-02-17 17:17 etc -> /etc

Assuming I have a firewire card with a supported chipset, is there anything special I need to do in order for the kernel to recognize the card? Shouldn't kudzu "wake up" and configure the card when I boot up after installing it? This is a brand spanking new 4.4 system and a supported Agere chipset firewire card. I'm having trouble tickling devices connected to the card.

Hi, as documented, if you use rsync with --copy-unsafe-links, and copy a directory with a symlink pointing outside of the copied tree, the referent of the symlink is copied. Now, assume that the directory contains a symlink, which points to a (2nd) directory outside of the copied tree. If this (2nd) directory contains another symlink, which also points outside of the copied tree, rsync

Hi, in my backup script I'm using the "-L" option to transform symlinks into referent files/dirs. Now I'm also using the "--delete" option. Unfortunately "--delete" doesnt work if an error like "Symlink has no referent" occurs. So far the only solution for that seems to not use the "-L" option or to add "--ignore-errors". It

Hi, The problem I found is not in what rsync, but on the error handling: How to reproduce: On server side I setup a tree and share using rsync + xinetd, of course, for security reason I use chroot option.

Hello, looking into the issue described in the advisory below I wonder how to tackle this issues. Primarily I ask myself * is there any reason not to filter all physical memory access by default * what would be the appropriate way to change the filter set? a sysctl?

I am being given a digital camcorder. It uses Mini DV tapes and either connects via typical RCA cables (IE to a tv) or via FireWire. I don't have the brand on hand, but I was told it can be ripped to DV like any standard FireWire camcorder (I believe dvgrab will be sufficient). I just installed an older FireWire card I have that I used at one point in Fedora for my iPod. It was a PITA

Hi..... I just bought a External HD with USB/FireWire interfaces. I was trying to connect it by firewire and nothing happened, but it's connected by USB, there is no problem.

Hi all! I'm trying to use my first-ever firewire device, and just OOB I'm not getting very far, so advice would be appreciated.

Hi All, I am using rsync to backup one server to another. I am connecting to the rsync daemon on the remote server and pulling to the backup server. When using SSH this error does not occur, but there are reasons why I have to use rsync directly. The problem I am having is that some of the symlinks on the remote machine will not copy. I am attempting to copy their referent by using the -L

I got a WD 1TB My Book with eSATA/USB/Firewire400 connectivity to backup data on a client Centos 5.1 machine. USB 2.0 works fine out of the box but is rather slow, Nautilus predicts about 1+ hour to fully backup just one day's worth of data or about 100GB. So I was hoping Firewire would be faster, which is why we got the version with all 3 interfaces to experiment with first. Following the

Hello, list Rsync is a amazing tools for files and directories syncing. There is something unclearly to me. I digged in the web for a while, but there aren't useful things for me. Here is my puzzle: I want to sync one big directory from one host to a remote host. And there are several symbolic links which linked to some files and directories that outside the certain directory. I want to

Hi! After switching from UMS (dated 20090701+c0bf670) to KMS (as of 2010-02-01), almost any X activity causes buffer underruns on my firewire soundcard. When the X pointer changes from arrow to the vertical text selection bar, firewire streaming is interrupted. Same with scrolling in firefox or hovering over a link, thus changing the pointer to "hand". Looks like nouveau is disabling

A friend sent me an ipod to office to transfer music to it. It had a firewire cable and I have an Audigy soundcard with a firewire port. But when I connected the ipod to the firewire port, I got a lot of weird numbers and interrupt errors and the system crashed badly.
