similar to: --compare-dest= dir list ?

I am writing a program that synchronizes my companies Windows laptops with our home server. Due to the nature of our proxy/firewall, I must use SSH with port forwarding to achieve this goal. Currently I establish the SSH connection using the following command: ssh ssh_user@proxy.example.com -i file_name -L 873:200.200.60.60:7000 -N and then run rsync with the following command: rsync

how do you backup system files like /etc/ over ssh to another machine and keep permissions the same on the remote backup location ? i tried using -a flag, but because i'm connecting through ssh i'm not using Rsync module on the remote computer and therefore i cant write files as root so -a flag is not working. all the files are being written with owner SSH_USER and group SSH_USER_GROUP i

Hi everyone. I'm looking for a way to identify my SSH's users according to their public key; I mean I would like to have their name logged in my bash session (in a shared unix account). I put this in my .profile: export HISTTIMEFORMAT="[%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S - $SSH_USER] " So now I'm trying to make OpenSSH fill the "SSH_USER" variable. First I have to exclude the

Hello, I'm new to this and am trying to modify the "backup to a central backup server with 7 day incremental" script from http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync/examples.html to suit my situation. I have ended up with the script attached below and when running it from command line I get these errors: rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(726) and a plethora of this >

Hello, I am using rsync v2.5.6 to backup our entire server filesystem over the network to a central backup server. I have copied the example script from the rsync website (http://rsync.samba.org/examples.html) to create incremental backups, the --backup-dir seems to have a strange side-effect. Everything goes well, but on the server side where the backup is stored I can't seem to break out

I am using the 'backup to a central backup server with 7 day incremental' example to archive three separate computers to identically configured (apart from name) shares on a Western Digital 'MyBookLive' NAS which has rsync enabled. The backup from two Raspberry Pi Computers operates without a problem but the backup from a Fedora 32 computer fails with an 'unknown module

There are a couple of niggles with the sandboxing of the unprivileged child in the privsep code: the empty directory causes namespace pollution, and it requires care to ensure that it is set up properly and remains set up properly. The patch below (against the portable OpenSSH, although the patch against the OpenBSD version is very similar) replaces the fixed empty directory with one that is

Need to understand exactly what the "--delete" flag does when rsync runs. Here is my understanding... If a file is created on the source machine on monday, then rsync'd to the rsync server on monday night, then deleted on the source machine tuesday, then it will be deleted from the rsync server on tuesday night when the cron job runs again. But, would rsync under any circumstances,

Hi folks, What is the purpose of following statements? [ -d $HOME/emptydir ] || mkdir $HOME/emptydir rsync --delete -a $HOME/emptydir/ $BSERVER::$USER/$BACKUPDIR/ Expecting reply. Baskar

Hi All, I have been using rsync to backup to a central server with a 7 day incremental script on 2 Redhat boxen. #!/bin/sh PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin DAY=`date +%A` export PATH DAY [ -d /root/emptydir ] || mkdir /root/emptydir rsync --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh --delete -a /root/emptydir/ CENTRAL_SERVER_IP:/backup2/BACKED_UP_SERVER_FQDN/$DAY rmdir /root/emptydir rsync --delete

Hi, I tried to build rsync-3.0.0pre4 on a list of different plattforms and got some problems with build or test suite. first, the good news: the build and tests worked fine on these plattforms Solaris 5.5.1, 5.6 and 5.8 (sparc) and 5.10 (x86 and sparc) SUSE Linux 9.0 (amd64), 10.1 (amd6) SLES10 (32 and 64 bit) RedHat 7.1 and 9.0 (32 bit) RedHat EL3 (ia64) problems

Normally I would use the --link-dest option to do this but I can't since I'm rsyncing from a Mac to a Samba share on a Linux box and hard links don't work. What I want to do is create a 10 day rotating incremental backup. I used the first script example on the rsync examples page as a template. The only thing I changed was the destination to be a local directory and paths for

Hello, here is a preliminary patch allowing rsync 2.5.6 to compile in BeOS (using the new BONE networking stack). Some explanations: - BeOS doesn't have chroot(), - the BONE networking stack export legacy network function for old apps in libnet.so (linked to by default), so it's necessary to force linking to the new libraries for things to work. I've yet to get inet_ntop() to be
