Hi rsync gurus! [Please Cc: me, as I am NOT subscribed to the list!] First the data points: debian/woody, local server=i386 arch, remote is alpha arch rsync version on both debian 2.5.5-0.2 While upgrading our server to a raid we were hit by a bug which I really consider very strange: The option -n/--dry-run does NOT change files, but DELETE files when called with --delete. Test case I had: $

I am puzzled as to why I can't get the option --link-dest to work properly. When I use this option when both source and destinations are on a local filesystem the hard-linking of the target against the link-dest directory does work, but when the source is a remote directory (via ssh or rsync server) hard links are not created. I suspect it has something to do with setting the correct

Hi, I'm confused as to the purpose of rsync modules. I know how to set them up in rsyncd.conf, and can list the available modules on a remote linux machine using 'rsync camlinux01::' from a Win32 client, but I can't find any information on what they are actually for. The man page for rsyncd.conf talks about them as if they are vitaly important, but the man page for rsync

I was told that my earlier submission of this report contained a user-hostile attachment (courtesy of Outlook), so here it is again, with the log included below. The problem: Files that exist only on the remote system are deleted silently (i.e. not logged), rather than noisily as implied by the recommendation of --dry-run in the rsync man page definition of --delete to see what would be

I have successfully added disk quotas to my FC6 system, so that the user "backup" cannot create files more than 1 block on / The reason I implemented this was because I backup my system to a USB drive mounted to /media/drivebay/backup1. However, if the drive is not mounted, then my root drive fills up (writing to the /media/drivebay/backup1 folder) and linux hangs. The problem is,

Hello, I'm trying to backup partition "/users1" on host "john" onto partition "backup1" on host "mary". Here is my rsyncd.conf: [backup1] path = /backup1 use chroot uid root gid root auth users = backup secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets strict modes = true hosts allow = 193.136.196.9 hosts deny = * It works with ssh as

Up until recently, I was running a standard rsync/rsh to rsyncd server combination to sync files. Due to security concerns, I'd like to switch to rsync through ssh. I'm testing with the following from the client side: rsync --verbose --progress --stats --compress --rsh="/usr/local/bin/ssh -p XXXX" \ --recursive --times --perms --copy-links --delete \ /rsynctest/test1

Hi, I am using btrfs for remote backups (via rsync), with daily and weekly snapshots.

Hello, I am noticing inconsistencies when using a trailing slash on the source directories in conjunction with the '--delete' option. In one instance when using a trailing slash files get deleted from subdirectories in the destination tree. In the other instance they don't. I am using rsync 2.5.5. The following are the scenarios: Scenario 1 ---------- *nix(src) ---> *nix(dest)

I would like to rsync the dirs "Documents" "Sofware" and the .evolution files only. and remove the *~ files ---------------------------------------------- Command: #rsync -r -n -t -v --progress --exclude-from=r2 /home/mt/ /home/mt/rsyncTest/ ------------------------------------------ #text file <r1>: + .evolution/calendar/local/system/calendar.ics +

I have been running RedHat 5.2 and Samba 2.0.3 for the past week or so. My network is made up of NT servers and 95/98 clients. So far Samba has been running beautifully - I can use my Samba shares just like they are NT shares. My only problem is from time to time my Win98 machine "goes to sleep" and asks me for either a password or an IPC$ password. Generally this happens after a

Hi, After tinkering with Samba, I managed to get my first share working on CentOS 7. I can create files and folders. I can delete them too. Except, there's one folder (possibly many more) that I can't delete, and I just can't figure out why. I have set SELinux to permissive and ensured proper ownership permissions. Yet, when I go to delete this folder, the files will be deleted,

I have two Suns with Solaris 9. I use rsync version 2.6.3. I copy files from the local machine to a remote rsync server. At the destination side I run rsync deamon via inetd. command rsync -av *.tmp backup1::tmp/ works well, I tried simulate damage of backup1, but when I disconnected backup1 machine and run command, rsync was still waiting for connection. I tried use this command: rsync -av

Hallo! I am running rsync-2.6.2-1.fc2.0 on fedora 2 server. I use incremental backup with rsync, and I have 7 folders that are rotated on a daily basis. At the moment I run backup only one time each day. /home-area on my server uses 18G, and all the 7 backups together fill up 19G on my usb-disk, so I think my script works okay. It looks like this: rsync -verbose -progres -a

Why does inserting an empty quote ("") into a rsync command cause the current directory to be backed up? Not sure if this is a UNIX-syntax question or rsync-syntax question. Code: #!/bin/sh echo "\nspace between quotes has no effect; only music is backed up:" rsync -ilrtn " " /home/wolf/music /backups/backup1 echo "\nempty quotes backs up current directory
