similar to: Limit rsync running time

Hi I'm trying to build a backup system based on rsync. It should work with different destinations (local, share, remote etc) that's why I'm looking for ways how every operation can be controlled from the client side. I want to create full backups and incremental backups. For the incremental backups I use --compare-dest lastfullbackup. This works nicely except that the whole directory

Howyd all? Seems that I have been routed. Possibly by a physical B&E, but who knows? Probably some of you do.... anyways, some politically sensitive email was deleted from a user account and the line low -tr & inserted into my .xinitrc . Duncan (Dhu) Campbell

Hi, I'm trying to run the following program with lastest wine release. http://www.receita.fazenda.gov.br/publico/programas/irpf/2003/UnicoDisco/irpf2003v1_2.exe The installation runs OK, but when I try to run the program I got a exception. I think the problem is this fixme:file:DeviceIoControl Unimplemented control 256 for VxD device NWLINK How can I solve this? Is there any NWLINK.VXD

Hi I was wondering what happens if a file that is regularly synched but seldom changes gets corrupted in the copy. As it seldom (or never) changes the mod time will always be the same. But if the content changes (bit flip, bad HD...) will rsync get this and synch it again? Would I need the -c (crc) flag for this to work? That of course slows things down quite a bit. Is this the only way to

Good day, I have been doing some tests with rsync on windows (client) to backup to a linux server. I started out with cwrsync, but ran into the dreaded "File name too long (91)" error. Apparently due to an issue with the cygwin portion of it. So I was then testing with a newer version of cygwin (1.7 beta) as the long file name issue was resolved. In testing that with some

Hi all, I'd like to modify rsync to add a flag to compare the MD5 signature of the unencoded audio data in the header of a FLAC file to determine whether or not to transfer a file. The reason being that I've got a large number of FLAC files, many of which are corrupted in the destination volume, but many of which are valid but the tags have been modified. The sizes of both the source and

Hello I have a problem while synching between two NAS boxes with Linux. First NAS: group staff=50 (3.0.3pre1) Second NAS: groups ftp=50, staff=500 (rsync 3.1.1) I synched with -rptgo, without --numeric-ids. The expected result was that the items on the second group would be staff as well even with a different gid. However it looks like the 50 was taken literally and now all staff items are ftp

yes, i`d second that. maybe you just try using metaflac to generate the appropriate list of files to sync and then feed that list to rsync. > Gesendet: Dienstag, 02.

Hello I'm looking for a way to exclude and delete some items but not delete other items. Use case: I'm on Windows where there are folders like recycle.bin and system volume information on every drive. I can exclude them while backing up my data drive. But I now also have other data that is excluded and that I want to delete from my existing backup. However if I use --delete-excluded then

Hi, Some years ago I developed a Delphi application for my private use and now I want it to run on Linux using wine. The application uses Paradox database engine. I tried to install the engine itself but failed. Eventually I installed the whole Delphi development environment with wine. It certainly installed BDE but I can not run even the dbd32.exe (database desktop). Machine: RH9 HW: HP

Hi I'm using a cygwin compiled rsync on Windows to backup and restore files from my local Windows computer. I'm trying several destination types: - remote with rsync:// - Samba share \\Server\Share - local drive I'm having problems with the user rights. The backup works ok but after restoring some files I can't access them. I've read that this is because rsync runs as cygwin

Rsync does no locking. Which means that: if you are modifying a file while it's

Hi I'd like to have a list of excluded items that I can always use and combine them with job-specific excludes (or generally filters). Is it possible to use --exclude-from more than once? Do I have to combine the exclude files into one and give this to rsync? Is there another possibility (that also works on Windows)? Thanks bye Fabi

I have a server that has been compromised. I'm running version 4.6.2 when I do >last this line comes up in the list. shutdown ~ Thu Aug 28 05:22 That was the time the server went down. There seemed to be some configuration changes. Some of the files seemed to revert back to default versions (httpd.conf, resolv.conf) Does anyone have a clue what type of

Hi I have a backup on a NAS that is quite full. So when I try to backup changed stuff it may run out of space, but only because rsync may try to write a new file before deleting the old one. That not only means changed files in the same place but also moved files, so delete-before wouldn't help. Is there a possibility to have a complete rsync run that only deletes files to make space for the

Hi Is there a way to get the status of a running rsync process? I believe it has to be done by sending a signal, but I can't find it anymore. I'd like to find out if a rsync process is hung or just transferring a lot of data. This is rsync 3.0.3(I think pre1) on a NAS with BusyBox. Thanks bye Fabi

Hi I have a NAS with rsync 3.0.3pre1. I know that is not new, but a NAS is not easy to update. This usually works fine. I have set up jobs to backup various stuff to another NAS. This is the statistics of one run. Though there were seen files (file size, vmware images) it finished almost immediately which lead to the funny transfer speed. receiving incremental file list Number of files: 125
