I am backing up files from Linux to a NTFS using rsync. I have the NTFS mounted on Linux via CIFS. I am discovering errors while attempting to backup files with restricted NTFS characters, like : [colon]. For example, I am unable to backup my crucial maildirs, as a colon is encoded in each Linux file path. Is there a solution to rsync Linux file paths with restricted NTFS characters, to NTFS?

Hello, I''d like to ask for some feedback on a patch I just submitted. The patch improves the reliability of ActiveSupport::Inflector.transliterate, which currently does not handle many characters from Danish, Swedish, Icelandic, Polish and other European languages. This is because the current code relies upon UTF-8 decomposition, but many common characters do not in fact decompose to

Wayne, i like the diff -u idea. I find -c awkward. It seems to me that the shell script could test for support of -u and if present use it instead of -c. ala if [ -n "`diff -u /dev/null /dev/null 2>&1`" ] then difftype="-c" else difftype="-u" fi diff $difftype "$2"/"$f" "$3"/"$f" || failed=YES or something

The patch from 2-1/2 years ago for changing copy-unsafe-links to follow unsafe links on the destination side also included essentially this patch. When I looked at it, however, I asked why in the world is unsafe_symlink() doing strdup() in the first place. I think you could get rid of the calls to strdup() and the new local variables and possibly do a couple casts inside the function instead. -

Hi, The documentation states that rsync writes temp-files to the recieving directory, unless --temp-dir is specified. This is not true since cvs-20030326, when receiver.c was modified. ( http://cvs.samba.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/rsync/receiver.c#rev1.44 ) You will get this error when you don't have write access to the current directory: mkstemp .somefile.UQVWQd failed: Permission denied rsync

Thanks! If I can be of any help, please let me know. While I don't have a lot of free time, either, I enjoy working on open-source software and have several years of experience porting it to our system. I'd be happy to try to lend a hand from time to time, applying well-formed patches or looking at bugs. Maybe my slack and busy periods would happen at different times from the other

Hi Friends, Does rsync V3 has the feature for logging the files which have not been transferred? Its already logs the file which have been transfered. Thanks, Jignesh -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

I'd like to be able to run GNU-diff type comparisons, but use R-sync technology to make it efficient to see what's different without transmitting all that data. Another thing I like to do using rsync protocol, is what I call rmdup -- remove duplicates. This would allow me to recursively (like diff -r) compare files in two (!!MUST BE!!) different directories and remove one (or the other)
