Hi, I'm very interested in learning the status of the --ignorecase patch being included in the main tree... is there a reason it still isn't in there? For anyone who is forced to dealing with backing up windows boxes, this is a big problem, and I can't believe that it isn't affecting a lot of people... Or maybe there is a simple workaround? I'm trying to backup files

Hi all, I'm rsyncing a windows 2003 client to a windows 2003 server using the cwrsync installation package. The trouble is that the permission rights set by rsync on the destination server are very restrictive and don't allow another application to access the files. I'd like to change that. However, the GID and UID parameters in the rsyncd.conf file don't seem to manage that.

I have set up an Rsync server on FreeBSD 5.3 and plan on having windows clients synchronize data to it. Rsync running as a daemon works fine. I can successfully copy data up to the server and view it via scp. Also- I can connect via ssh and run rsync as well. HOWEVER- I cannot connect "passwordless" with SSH and then connect to the rsync daemon. The following demonstartes what I

Hi all! We're using cwrsync server 2.0.4 on winxp to keep files up to date between some operator machines. Whenever I run rsync to send files to another machine, the read-only flag gets set. The cwrsync user was created (the install is completely standard)... so I'm thinking it might have something to do with that. Here's my rsyncd.conf: use chroot = false strict modes = false

We were trying to introduce a better client side log format so that we could get timestamps and module names etc. In the rsync documentation it looks like you can use --log-format for the client ... there is even a sentence saying that this format would not interfere with the rsybc daemons format. We are using cwrsync and when we try and add --log-format="%o %h [%a] %m (%u) %f %l" The

I'm having prolems with cwRsync on server 2003. I'm getting pretty much identical results to this from the archive: http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-April/009187.html, and as far as I can see the only suggestion there was to check permissions. I have one further complication too- I'm trying to sync a remote server on to a vmware virtual disk that I've mounted using the

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'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.

Hello all, This is my first post to the group, so please go easy on me. I've setup a cwRsync server on a Windows 2003 Server and an XP client. I have setup rsync to copy a directory from the server to the client, and the files transfer perfectly. The only problem is that the permissions on the destination are wrong. I want the permissions on the destination to end up being the

Hi, I am using cwRsync on windows xp and getting following error when I start the rsync client to do local copy. Looks like some kind of permission issue. Any configuration to be done on windows or rsync side? C:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin>rsync -tvvvv ..\license.txt ..\dest cmd=<NULL> machine=<NULL> user=<NULL> path=..\dest cmd[0]=. cmd[1]=..\dest rsync: pipe: Operation not

I am using deltacopy (uses rsync) to backup up a drive in windows vista to a freenas server. Before moving to vista, had the system working fine (on a windows xp machine). The command used for the backup is: rsync.exe -v -rlt -z --delete "/cygdrive/F/TXT/" "nas::160d/_Acer_F/TXT/" As a result of this command, rsync should create a dir (not on nas) and then copy some files

Since upgrading to 2.6.8 with the tag 3 patch, I've been consistently getting an error using rsync. We have about 100 servers using the client to a central backup server and the issue is repeatable on the servers having the problem. About 10 of the servers are having the problem. The error reported by rsync is: Invalid file index: -1019607330 (count=8353) [sender] rsync error: protocol

Hi, I have installed cwRsync Server on Windows Server 2000. I having problems starting the Rsync Server service. If I try to start it manually. I get a message says; Could not start Rsync Server service on the Local Computer The service did not return and error. There could be an internal windows error or internal service error. If the problem persists contact your system administrator I have

Hi. I have an Western Digital network drive My Book World Edition 500GB.. I have installed cwrsync and try to sync a folder on my local machine(Windows Vista) to my my external network drive ( in the same LAN). The strange thing is that rsync copies folders and files, but the files seems to be HIDDEN at the destination. I have tried several versions of rsync and cygwin, and also several options on

Hi, I'm using rsync with cygwin to synchronize two windows servers. I've got files in server side with full permisions to Administrator user, but when i synchronize it with another windows server, the file placed in client side has a new group called NONE with read , write and execute permisions. I'm using the following line to call rsync: rsync -zvvvr --perms --owner --group

Hello, I'm using cwRsync on windows (I've tried a few alternatives, like Delta for example, but all of them behave equally (bad) in my case - they set really weird permissions on binaries - I don't know which ones exactly, but binaries cannot be executed). I have a linux server with binaries for different platforms. When I rsync (copy) linux binaries to linux, or copy mac binaries

Hi all, we are just beginning to dive into rsync. I have limited experience with just playing around with the examples and reading all the docs that I can. I just read an interesting post from a developer that mentions cwrsync is a minimalistic rsync and thus things like permissions are not transfered, the post was from 2004. Here are my questions Windows (cw)Rsync Client --> Linux Rsync

Does anyone know a simple self-contained (e.g., along with the appropriate cygwinxxxx.dll file) rsync and ssh binary Windows distribution of rsync and ssh in which ssh supports protocol 2? I tried the installation from http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/rsync/binaries/ but these do not support protocol 2. Thanks, Ken Senior

Case point: 2 Servers (both with Windows Server 2k3 & cygwin). Running ssh on the destination server. Problem: The rsync user will take ownership over any files copied over from the source server. This takes ownership away from the administrators group, thus disallowing inherited permissions. Is there any way around not taking ownership away from the administrators group and giving it to the

Hi folks, It may be a very basic question for many people here but I have been struggling with Windows commandline. My CentOS machines are running perfectly fine. Question: I have installed cwRsync server on one of Windows 2003 and cwRsync client on the other Windows 2003. What command should I run to connect to the cwRsync server from the client? and how can I make sure that cwRsync is even
