Dear rsync people, I have finally made packages for rsync 2.6.8 with ACL support. You can download a prepatched source package and RPMs from here: http://www.kepreon.com/~matt/myrsync/ Or you can use this yum repository: http://www.kepreon.com/~matt/rpm/ The RPM is called rsync-acl so automatic updating tools will know not to toss it in favor of plain rsync, but it "Provides" rsync

Dear Wayne, C Sights, and list, I have started working on my rewritten version of the rsync man page. So far, I have redone the top of the man page and the list of options; I improved many of the one-line option descriptions. The yodl and man versions of my man page are available here and here: http://www.kepreon.com/~matt/private/rsync-new-manpage/rsync.yo

Dear rsync people (particularly Wayne), I am finding that the CVS version of rsync hangs during most, but not all, local copies. The problem goes away if I pass --protocol=29, so I'm guessing it is related to the incremental file-list sending. The hanging seems to be timing-dependent. Increasing the verbosity level seems to increase the chance of a hang. If I run rsync repeatedly with the

Copy files from Windows to Windows, preserving Windows ACLs? If so, you might be better off using rsync to copy the files and another tool to copy the ACLs. Since rsync is meant first and foremost for Unix-like systems,

Hi, Can someone tell me the status of ext3 acl support in rsync? I saw this post from may 2004 which seems to indicate there is a patch. http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-May/009466.html But it still appears that 2.6.6 doesn't have any acl support included. Is that true? Does anyone know where to get the latest patch for 2.6.6 if it even exists? Thanks Paul --

I've just released rsync 2.6.7pre3 -- the third, and (hopefully) final pre-release version of the 2.6.7 release. Please test this out and email the rsync mailing list with any questions, comments, bug reports, etc. Thanks! You can download the tar file and its signature from here: http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.6.7pre3.tar.gz

I''m running 2.6.6 on a red hat EL3 system. using the following command, rsync -rlptDvzL --stats --include=a/ --include=a/dir/ --include=a/dir/symlink/ --include=a/dir/symlink/dir2/ --include=a/dir/symlink/dir2/dir3/ --exclude=''**'' /export/stuff remote::stuff I expect the "symlink" (which is really a symbolic link to a directory) to be preserved on the

Given two directories "foo" and "fooprime", can I have rsync make a file or directory "d", that contains the differences between these two directories such that I can take d and apply it to foo to get fooprime, or take fooprime and reverse-apply d to it to get foo? I'm not sure that the --backup and --backup-dir options to rsync will give me exactly what I want.

Hello ! I`m trying to find a way to use lzo compression for the data being transferred by rsync. rsync only supports gzip (or maybe ssh -c, which is also zlib), which gives cpu intensive workload - and this cannot be exchanged by a commandline param like we have with tar (--use-compress-program=....) i like to use lzo because it does much faster compression than gzip. I read the following in

I have a scenario where I am copying from a local system to remote target and need to remove the local source files once they have been successfully transfered. --remove-source-files works fine for this. An issue has come up in that I need to be able to backup the removed local source files as well. With rsync 2.6.9 I tried: rsync --remove-source-files --backup-dir=/archive –abv (source)

I am having trouble running rsync over a mapped drive. Basically it only copies whole files. I use the -rvcS switches. Any suggestions?

I wrote a patch for rsync 2.6.6 that changes two things: (1) When the receiving rsync creates a file in a directory with a default ACL and `--perms' is off, rsync uses the default ACL instead of the umask to calculate the new file's permissions. All programs that just use `open' and don't do an explicit `chmod' are forward-compatible with default ACLs, but rsync always sets

Hi all, I'm new to the rsync list. I've been searching for two days and have tried five different installs and so far none work the way I need them to.

Wayne, I noticed that rsync's "*deleting" itemize output needs two trailing spaces now that the other itemize codes are 11 characters wide. See the patch below.

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

Hello, I was reading your posts about RSYNC. We have a massive Oracle schema lots of datafiles about 750 GB size. We do rsync datafiles from source to target server but everytime we cleanup the datafiles on the target server and do rsync every 2 weeks. On the target side mostly the datafiles will be same but on source we might have added few datafiles or made some changes in data and as such the

Suppose we have about 1000 files at location 'A' & 500 files at location 'B' & we want them to be transmitted to each other (not exactly synchronizing two location). RSYNC can do that, no issues on that. But i have few queries further. My first query: 1. Can we make some sort of queuing procedure alongwith or through RSYNC. Like in which we can provide priorities to
