Hello I run rsync on a server and I backup our office PCs to it using cwRsync on Windows PCs. The command I use to backup these PCs is: rsync -vbalz --stats --backup-dir=/yesterday_backups/ --exclude-from="exclude_list.txt" --files-from="include_list.txt" --rsh="ssh" . username@mydomain.com:/path/to/folder On the server, I have the rsync service started at

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

HI, I'm trying to have files to be included during rsync. I have the filesystem /stor/circuit_design/, with the following subdirectories as its contents: clock_speed fub_layout test_simulations pattern_flow I would only like to rsync the following 2 subdirectories to the destination machine: clock_speed fub_layout and they're contained in the file called files_included: # cat

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''m trying to make a ComboBox that can be typed into but only accepts entries that are already in the drop-down list. I hoped a combination of the CB_DROPDOWN style and a TextValidator with the FILTER_INCLUDE_LIST would make that happen, but the validator seems to be ignored. Is that combination supposed to do what I want? If so, please review the code below and let me know where my

As mentioned on the rsync home page, the --files-from=FILE option in rsync version 2.6.0 is a useful option that allows one to "specify a list of files to transfer, and can be much more efficient than a recursive descent using include/exclude statements (if you know in advance what files you want to transfer)". However, --files-from does not help one implement the --rsync-exclude=FILE

Hi, Could anyone please tell me how to get the meaning of rsync error codes. In "rsync return code: 12" error, what 12 indicates? Thanks, Jignesh -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

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

I have to use a program on two desktop PCs seperated by several miles at different times of the day. So I thought that maybe Rsync could help. The program in question has a settings directory so I thought I could get Rsync to sync this directory between the two machines. But Rsync seems to always force the files on the Rsync server to go to the slave regardless that the slave has the most upto

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.

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

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)

I have added regular expression support using a POSIX implementation. The patch (against 2.5.5) is attached. The implementation is simple and follows the same mechanism that is implemented for normal searches. I added these command line arguments: --rexclude=PATTERN exclude files matching regexp PATTERN --rexclude-from=FILE exclude regexp patterns listed in FILE --rinclude=PATTERN

Hello All: I'm having an issue with rsync in that it recently (11/29/2008) started to crash during a daily cron job backup. Below is some info on how rsync is being used to backup our servers. Version: 2.6.9 Execution: Called daily via a wrapper script, and up until about 2 weeks ago, ran fine. The wrapper script just loops through a series servers to backup. The first server

This is a patch to add an --rsync-exclude option to rsync-2.5.6cvs. File names in .rsync- (or .rsync+) are excluded (or included) from the file lists associated with the current directory and all of its subdirectories. This has advantages over --cvs-exclude for backing up large file systems since the .cvsignore files only apply to the current directory: unless the .cvsignore restrictions apply
