Is there a way to make rsync look inside device files ? The goal is to copy the contents of a block device to a regular file incrementally. Short of that, even just getting it to dump the block checksums of the content a block device would help (if I know which blocks are out of sync, I can fix them with dd). -- Andr?

Is there a way to make rsync unconditionally transfer files, i.e. create them anew even if the target already exists and is identical to the source ? rsync -I looks closer but still avoids transferring the files. -- Andr? Majorel http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/

Trying to use rsync to make sure that _dest_ is a regular file with the same content as file _source_. If _dest_ already exists and is a symlink, FIFO or device file, rsync deletes it and creates a regular file in its place. Good. If _dest_ already exists and is a directory, rsync creates _dest_/$(basename _source_). Not what I want. Is there an option similar to GNU install -T or GNU cp -T

Hello all. Thanks for FLAC. It's served me well for the past few years. Is there a program out there to truncate a FLAC file without decoding/recoding it ? Preferably command-line (I already know at what point I want to truncate it). Thanks in advance. -- Andr?

Some libcs like uClibc-ng can optionally disable deprecated functions. utime is one of them. When done so, both the header and the function go missing.

Hi, attached there is a prototype of patch for adding a new copy-attributes command. Such command would allow copy the attributes of a "file" to another, so for example in guestfish: copy-attributes foo bar permissions:true xattributes:false would only copy the permissions of foo to bar, not copying its extended attributes too. Just few notes: - my first daemon command, so

Hey, I've been trying to transfer about 90GB from one Server to another using rsync. But rsync stops randomly. I use the bash script provided in a bug report, to block errors about vanished files! Here is how I start rsync: ./rsync-no-vanished -vvvvv -a -e ssh --delete --progress -z root@kilu3.de:/var/www/users /data/oldkilu3/ > /data/rsync.kilu3n & When I log in into the server

Hi rsync'ers. What can you recommend to create the initial backup of a partition before calling rsync (under Linux, 100 GB, 10M files, only normal files and some soft links)? (Using rsync takes too long for this initial copy.) Here are some candidates: 1. star -copy -no-fsync -p -xdot -C $1 . $2 2. tar -C $1 -cf - . | tar -C $2 -xf - 3. cp -a $1 $2 4. cpio ... ... Any experiences?

Hi, i have a couple of questions I would appreciate if someone could answer... 1) Are there any guidelines for estimating server load? I am going to be running a couple of RSync servers and don't even have an order of magnitude guess as to what kind of load they can handle, how many sessions I should allow at once, etc. The data set I'll be serving is about 7000 files, an update to them

Hi all, The latest pre-release is here: http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/flac/beta/flac-1.3.0pre3.tar.xz but there will probably need to be at least one more. I've tested this on x86_64-linux powerpc-linux i386-openbsd5.2 i386-freebsd9 The majority of changes since the last pre-release is the addition of Janne Hyv?rinen's utf8 I/O functionality. Janne's

I've taken the liberty of starting a new thread to discuss the design of the Asterisk CDR mechanism. The discussion has been kindly initiated by murf putting together a proposal: http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/murf/RFCs. After reading the proposal I still don't think it's the right way to go. To my mind adding more channel variables increases the complexity in a situation
