Hi-- Ok. I?ve now run into the next thing I can?t find in man, and this time, I googled as well: --exclude /afs/\* I thought you could just say: --exclude /afs/* or even --exclude /afs/ To exclude the entire afs directory. Can you explain what the purpose of the \ and * are here? Thanks again :) All My Best, Jeffrey on 8/6/06 5:00 AM, rsync-request@lists.samba.org at

Hello I'm translating a Visual Basic routine to R. Which command in R is similar to "select case" in VB? See the example: select case int(AG) case 0, 5, 8, 10 VAR = 37 case 1, 4 VAR = 70 case 3, 6, 9 VAR = 90 case 2, 7 VAR = 112 end select A chain of "if else" would not be very elegant. Is there another option? Thanks in advance. Best regards. Antonio

Hi everybody ... I just read on the samba announce that's now possible to use the printer migrator tool prtmig.exe to backup existing queues and drivers on a Microsoft machine and restore them on Samba ...

I must be seriously misunderstanding the man page coverage of --compre-dest. My take was that if a file in compare-dest=dir matches a file in SOURCE/ then it won't be transferred to DEST/. I tried this test. (d1 has single files and 2 subdir with files) cp -a d1 d1a mkdir d2 rsync -avv --compare-dest="./d1a" d1/ d2/ d1a is carbon copy of d1 but still every last file in

Hi, we do a 1:1 backup from our main raid to a backup raid every night with rsync -a --delete /mnt/raid1/ /mnt/raid2 rsync is 3.09, filesystems are ext3, OS is SLES 11 SP1. The rsync process takes several hours, even if no file has changed at all. Using -vv I see that rsync compares all files every time and that takes long for some hundreds of millions of small files. Can I tell rsync it

I have a bit of an issue with rsync. I am using to keep directories in sync via another server for backup. Here is the server config [w1] path = /w1 comment = w1 web dir [w2] path = /w2 comment = w2 web dir Now on the client i run this command rsync -avv --delete --force domain.com::w1/ /w1/ It will NOT delete anything that is no on the server anymore.. for example on the server/client there

Hello Community, (sorry to be more busy, hence more running questions in parallel :) ) As mentioned in another post, I am testing mail_crypt plugin. I was wondering how to really secure the process sothat even the admin cannot have any access to the other users mail content. My current config is simple: - using per-folder keys (hence the per-user spaces are preserved) - put the

1) I'm a developer. 2) I use one special machine as a CVS server, generic storage ( an electronic attic ), as a web server of online documentation ( such as the python documentation, or SGI STL docs ). 3) I would like to add a hard drive to that system that mirrors the system drive. Someone suggested that I use rsync for this purpose. Called by a cron job that starts at 2:00am. I also want to

I have looked on the mailing lists and through rsync documentation but those still haven't solved my problem. I may be calling rsync incorrectly but the problem I have is that the exclude file seems to be ignored. My final goal is to replicate an entire host, excluding some files that contain specific IP, hostname configuration things. I'm trying to start small by mirroring a

I'm trying to transfer something to another machine launching a once-only "daemon" through ssh with this command: rsync -avv -e "ssh -l user" ./orig/ machine::module/ where "module" is the name of a file in the home dir of user with the following: path = /path/to/home/transfer The ssh connection works without passphrase. This is the error: opening connection

I'm trying to understand how to properly setup the /etc/rsyncd.conf file to run an rsync daemon with a secrets file specified in a module - the rsync.conf manpage does not spell it out clearly enough.

Dear All, Thanks ofr the great job so far. I have crawled the doc & web, and did not find oh to check for the presence of a folder ina? a mailbox? I know about "fileinto :create" of course, but the purpose is slightly different: I want to automate the move into a folder based on some rules but *only if* an associated folder is present (which name is based on the rule),

Hello Community, I am currently facing the following: - dovecot+postfix+sieve are running smoothly using passwd-file authentication - if a add a second authentication scheme (let's say mysql), I face a problem with sieve: -- receiving thru postfix is ok on both passwd-file and mysql entries and correctly stored -- I am able to send from the server as before ** BUT sieve

I have a 29 Gig full backup on a remote server (lets call if fedor) that is called Kbup_1. I have a 1.3 Gig incremental backup on my local server. I have rsync 2.6.2 on both servers. Both are RedHat Linux 9.1 on i-686 hardware platforms. I issue the command "time rsync -avv --rsh=rsh --stats /test/Kibbutz/Kbup_1 fedor://test/Kibbutz". The synch takes ~5 minutes of real time and about
