similar to: partial-dir not being used?!

When --partial-dir is used rsync creates new or updated files inside a temporary dir. For example the new version of some/path/file is created in some/path/<partial-dir-name>/file and later moved. What happens if a new directory is created? If some/path/newdir/newfile is to be copied, is it done in some/path/<partial-dir-name>/newdir/<partial-dir-name>/newfile? Or is newdir

Hello, I have set up an anonymous rsync server that seems to work as expected. However when I try to access the server from several other unix boxes using rsync with a command like this; rsync netlib3.cs.utk.edu::netlib I get the motd and then a line that states client: nothing to do Now I would expect this to give me a directory listing. I do get the directory listing as expected when

Hello list, I am having a problem with template file. Why are variables not interpolated? [root@puppet manifests]# cat /etc/motd memory free = <%= memoryfree %> domain = <%= domain %> operating system = <%= operatingsystem %> This is the template file [root@puppet manifests]# cat ../templates/motd.erb memory free = <%= memoryfree %> domain = <% domain %>

Dear List, I'm confused when we will run into "if (motd && *motd)"? As I have found that Globals is set 0 during initialization, and I didn't find anywhere else assign the value. If so, should we remove this section? Or there might be some where I missed? Please correct me, if I'm wrong. Thanks in advance. clientserver.c #line 147~160 > if (!am_client) {

Hello I have been using puppet for a while now, more or less successfully on SLES 11 and CentOS 5.5 currently I am using puppet 2.6.6 I now am trying it out on redhat 6, and now i run into an problem with even the simplest of modules/classes The error I get is : debug: /Stage[main]/Motd/File[/etc/motd]/content: Executing ''diff -u / etc/motd

Is there a way to make the rsync client suppress the motd without suppressing other messages when connecting to an rsync server? What I want is to run rsync from cron and have it produce output only when any files have been downloaded or deleted and whenever errors have happened. Otherwise, I want it to be quiet. This doesn't seem to be possible with rsync as of version 2.5.7. When I use the

Hello, I did make a stupid fault: not commiting changes to version control :-( After the installation of puppet-dashboard, I added a recipe to add report = true to puppet config files on clients. Now all Puppet clients don''t update because of an error... What can be the various reasons for an ''400'' error?? I guess it has something to do with rights. Jun 28 09:52:36 pm

Dear List, Currently, I read this in clientserver.c, line 148. motd = lp_motd_file(); I have googled, but didn't the definition of char *lp_motd_file(void).

Is there a way to omit the text printed out by issue(5) on some systemes? Like what --no-motd does for motd-texts.

I am attempting to utilize the exclude from option in my rsync configuration file (rather than maintain lists on users machines) but it does not appear to be working. One example, I placed *.mp3 in the file to keep them from syncing mp3 files to the server and jamming up space. But rsync just seems to ignore this and syncs the files anyway without any errors to the syslog. All of my

I am trying to set up an rsync server on windows 2000 and red hat linux 7.1, but unsuccesfully. I haven't been able to find detailed information in the man pages about this issue, which makes it quite hard to figure out. So far I have set up an ftp server and a http server, which I guess would be required for rsync to transfer the files through. Secondly I have created the required files:

Hi All: I am new to rsync so be gentle with me. I have been able to get rsync working enough to be able to list modules but not transfer files. When I try to transfer a file from the client to the server I use the command: rsync -avz fapmenu fisdev::bak The client displays the following messages: @ERROR: access denied to bak from pgiprd.forsoft.com (192.168.2.19) rsync:

Hi, I was just using ssh to access an IPv6 machine. ssh root at 2002:1234::1 (example address) works, while scp root at 2002:1234::1:/etc/motd . works not, scp parses this as hostname 2002 and file path 1234::1:/etc/motd It's a syntax problem. The manpage addresses this problem for -L and -R arguments, but not for scp arguments. Any idea how to deal with this problem? regards
