similar to: Can Rsync do this?

Hi, I'm trying to get rsync to use a list of directories and their contents to to another drive on a Windows XP machine. I tried the command rsync -rDPt --delete --include-from=c:\include_list.txt --exclude-from=c:\exclude_list.txt /cygdrive/d/source/ /cygdrive/e/backup But the trouble is that no matter what I put in the include_list file it always copies everything in source. I even

I'm using CWRSync 2.6.9 protocol 29 on a Windows 2003 Standard R2 server. I'm trying to copy files onto a local usb harddrive. Both filesystems are NTFS. Rsync is failing to copy some files due to the file name length. I kind of assumed that Rsync could handle the same file name length that Windows users are allowed to enter. :-) Is there *anything* I can do with Rsync to allow these

I'm trying to use rsync to keep the permissions between two Windows servers. A windows NT 4 server (with rsync daemon) and windows 2003 R2 I use Rsync in a batch file and I run it as Administrator by double clicking on it. Typically: set cygwin=notnsec rsync -rpDPo --chmod=Du+rwx,Fu+rwx,+X and the files are crossed over but the permissions are screwed up. Now, I can't find out the

I am trying to get two servers to copy each others data to the other server. I need it to be done real time a not use a cron. Can rsync running as a daemon monitor the files system to trigger a transmission? If so how do I configure it? I am running Solaris 9. Thank you. ______________________ Charles Berman Senior Unix Administrator "Think Globally" The contents of this email

I've just tried upgrading to cwrsync 2.1.0 (Rsync version 3.0.0 protocol version 30) between 2 Windows XP Pro sp2 machine across the Internet. I used: SET CYGWIN=nontsec SET HOME=c:\cwrsync\bin C:\cwrsync\bin\rsync -za -u -P --delete --recursive /cygdrive/c/test2/ stuart@test.address.co.uk::test/ When I run the above batch script on the remote machine I get this odd output.

I've had Samba 2 running just fine on my REDHAT 8 server and I've just upgraded to V3.04. It seems to all work but..... I tried to make it behave as a BDC WINS server as I've got Windows NT4 PDC and BDC servers and I need my Redhat box to act as a backup WINS server. This I've now done I think. But when I use WIN Manager from NT it doesn't think the WINS on the Linux box

If I use : rsync --delete -va dump/* remote::home to mirror a local directory containing several files to a remote server then these are copied as expected. However, if I delete a file in 'dump' and do the command again then this file in 'remote' is NOT deleted. But this works: rsync --delete -va dump/ remote::home ie, the file on the server is deleted. Is this a bug or are

Hey all, I'm looking into a two-way WAN mirror on two boxes running Mac OS X 10.4. It seems that both rsync (with the -u option) and unison could do this. Any suggestions on how to choose one over the other?

I'm running cwrync : rsync version 2.6.4 protocol version 29 on a Windows 2000 sp4 PC and I'm trying to rsync my favourites from my home PC to this Win2K machine. I run a batch file on this win2K machine. 99.99% of these .url files are transfered correctly. But the odd one doesn't get transfered. Ok, here is an example. I've a URL in d:\favorites\Triops called "(SZARE)

Hello, I try to backup files from a NAS to our backup-server using rsync. The NAS itself is not able to run rsync. Therefore I installed rsyncd (cwrsync 2.1.1) on a windowsserver which has access to the NAS. I configured the rsyncd like this: [nspPR53_so2] path = /172.21.87.9/nspPR53_so/material/doc read only = true transfer logging = yes When connecting with the client I get the error

Hi as I'm a real newbie to rsync I'd better apoligise if this is 'old hat'. I'm trying to get to grips with rsync and I've set up rysnc as a server on a redhat 8 linux pc using a simple rsyncd.conf I then tried to list some files placed in the rsync server by using a commandline shell to this server. I've called the server 'server'. But for some reason I

Hello, I have two production servers which house large drive arrays storing digitized music for our webradio. They are used in a 'failover' configuration so that if one goes down the other remains available. New music is added all of the time to this library and it is a pain to have to add it to both machines as the files are large (.wav). I am thinking to setup rsync to keep the drives

Hello, some people want to use the following construction: they have a NAS machine with an integrated rsync (may be on embedded linux). they have a WinXP with cwRsyncServer (with rsync 3.0.2) and they have on WinXP a network share (i.e. Y: == "//192.168.100.123/sharename") They can use NAS / WinXP with cwRsync to copy files from NAS to a local path on the WinXP machine. But how

Hello, I am very new to rsync and am wanting to have it back up more than 4 remote linux servers via ftp. I want to write a script that will open up a ftp connection using "ftp://username:password@ftp.server.com" with a server, then mount the drive containing the backups, copy the data that is new, unmount the drive, close the connection and move onto the next server until every server

Hi there I have created a multivariate logistic regression model looking at the presence/absence of disease on farms. I would like to plot the diagnostic plots recommended by Hosmer & Lemeshow to look particularly for any points of high influence. In order to do this I need to extract values for delta-beta. The function dfbeta gives a value for change in each coefficient but I am looking

Hi all, i'm using an rsync windows server under cygwin. The rsync linux clients work very well, using all available bandwidth; instead the only windows server 2003 client does not exceed the 80 KB/s when transferring files, so it is very slow. It is invoked through command line rsync --verbose --progress --stats --compress --recursive --times --perms --links --delete --password-file .......

I have a FreeBSD unix server that I want to backup to a USB drive attached to a Windows 2000 server. I mount the smb share on the Unix server and then try to rsync from the source directory to the mounted directory, but it syncs all files every time. Can someone suggest if this should work and what my problem may be? -- Robert

Hi, I am using rsync-2.5.5 on power pc system. It is an embedded system with very low memory few MBs. Most of the time only 4-5 MB memory is free (as shown using free command). I have an application that periodically (every 20 sec) fires rsync command from system command i.e. system ("rsync..") to a remote m/c connected to it. The data I have to rsync has hardly 60 files with total size
