similar to: rsync 3.0.6 and keep-dirlinks in daemon mode

Hi, the combination of --keep-dirlinks and --delete (--delete-during, --delete-delay) erroneously deletes symlinks to directories on the receiver. With --delete-before and --delete-after it works as expected. (rsync version 3.0.3 protocol version, on Debian Lenny) I don't think that this behaviour is intended. Details/example: - Host 1 directory-structure: drwx------ ./1

Hello folks, trying to make use of the new --keep-dirlinks feature for a synch port; it works excellent but feels incomplete without a way for rsync to ignore recursive links. Example: # ls -la . total 6 drwxrwxr-x 2 bldmstr staff 512 Aug 16 21:42 . drwxrwxr-x 8 bldmstr staff 512 Aug 16 21:41 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 bldmstr staff 2 Aug 20 12:07 bogus -> .. if you use

Hi, I have gone through the rsync documentation and also tested same both --no-implied-dir and --keep-dirlinks options. My question is what is the difference between these options in below scenario? I have /foo/bar is the symlink to /foo/baz at source and same directory structure with symlink is there at destination. When I sync the data from /foo/bar/* with --relative option specified, I am

Hi, I just read the thread http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-June/009678.html which describes how --keep-dirlinks came to be. My use case is similar, but I?d like a similar option for files as well. Setup: in my public_html I have some symlinks which I send over as files, with -L (for various reasons: partly, because they are copies of current work which is done elsewhere, or

I've been using the --keep-dirlinks feature of 2.6.3pre1. I also use -x (--one-file-system) and --delete-after. The symlinked directories on the receiver are symlinked to a partition other than the one where the target of the rsync resides (that's the whole point of this nifty --keep-dirlinks feature). I discovered that the symlinked directories are not being processed for deletions.

It would be nice if rsync offered a way to specify individual dirlinks to keep without keeping all dirlinks. (Unison can do this.) For example, consider the following command: rsync -a --relative src/./ dest/ If rsync refrained from trimming a trailing /. off of source arguments (at least as an option), one could keep a dirlink by passing it as an additional source argument with a /. and

Wayne, Attached is a patch worth of suggested man page improvements for --no-implied-dirs and --keep-dirlinks. I think new users would find my explanations clearer and more complete, although you may want to make additional changes. I regenerated rsync.1 and the patch includes changes to it, but my yodl is somewhat weird, so I suggest you run yodl again yourself. -- Matt McCutchen

Hi folks, I have a bunch of directories to mirror via rsync. I have lots of hardlinked files spread about these directories. Therfore I use -R (--relative) and -H. so far ok but: I create symlinks to the source-directories via script because src-dirs have changing names (date and time of backup) and I want to have constant directory names on target. How can I achieve that? I thought -k

If I have a backup script that does the following: (latest 2.6.9 rsync) rsync --archive --hard-links --force --ignore-errors --numeric-ids --keep-dirlinks --delete / /backup I've found that if there is a symlink in place that gets backed up (which goes fine), i.e.: homelink -> /home/ and then that symlink gets changed into an actual directory, i.e.: rm homelink mkdir homelink rsync

I'm trying to figure out if there is some way to run an rsync daemon which makes a mix of "real" and symlinked folders available to a client such that all the folders appear as "real" to the client. I realize the --copy-links and --copy-dirlinks accomplish this when invoked from the client side (and that is currently how I am accomplishing this). Is there any way to

So for auth_policy_server_api_header. is the value of our_password come from the hashed response or the plain-text password? What else am I doing wrong?
