Howdy, I've been having a bear of a time tracking this down. I'm currently using rsync to back a bunch of servers up to a ZFS pool on a server. I recently noticed my deltas between ZFS snapshots seemed a bit large, so I started looking more closely at what was being backed up. Looking at some Maildirs, I found that messages (files) that had been deleted on the server were not being

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. Rsync server is rsync-2.5.6. If this is my /etc/rsyncd.conf file: ------------------------------------ log file = /var/log/rsync uid = root gid = root [test] uid = rsync1 gid =

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

Hi all, I'm stuck with a little dilemma and I thought someone could give me a little advice. Is there a way to use rsync with an ssh certificate? what I have: ---------------- First of all I am forced to use the root account with ssh which I know is a big no, no, but sometimes it can't be helped. Second, I need to use a certificate without a password as root which is even worst than

Now everything works but in my log file im getting each file which is transferred listed and i didnt want

Is it possible to konfigure a passwordless authentifikation in kombination with ssh. for example: to a specific folder on a server named server1 has only user1 access. the user1 only exists on server1. server2 wants to replicate a foler from server1 to himself. the rsync process uses the rsync_user, which exists on both machines. the rsync process asks every time the job runs for the password

Hi, some time ago I had started working on a rsync-based backup system. After I longer break; I now tried to continue this project but can't get it to work anymore. Maybe somebody here has any idea. The basic setup looks like this: client: $rsync $rsync_opts --rsh="'ssh -i $ssh_key'" $filesystems $bak_host::backup_module/path on the server side, the ssh key triggered a

Hi, I have a problem rsync disk that is linked in the following way: /a/b/c/d/e -> ../e We use that in order to create linked tree which has link to kind of tools we need to rsync and thus not worry on disk capacity cause we can add linked disks as many as we can. We use rsync module with chroot for security reasons as follows: [d] Path = /a/b/c/d Chroot = true The

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

Does rsync even get started on the remote system? That would be the first thing to investigate. If it is getting run, does the remote process crash or die? If you are connecting with a daemon process, you can look at the logs to

Hi people. My first post so be lenient :) I have read stuff on rsync, looked through the options and read the man page but cannot seem to find an answer to my problem. Ok. I have a script which connects to a remote machine via ssh and pulls back a list of source directories/files from a config file on the remote server. I then loop these lines and do an rsync for each item to pull the files

Also, I prefer to do backups by filesystem so I would add - --one-file-system and run one rsync per filesystem. This means you don't have to exclude things like /proc and /dev and any random thing that isn't normally connected but sometimes is but it

I cannot figure out where I am going wrong with my excluded files syntax! rsync backups up those folders I'm trying to exclude. rsync -av --exclude-from=/etc/rsync_excluded.conf --delete root@polaris::polhome /pol_home_bkup cat /etc/rsync_excluded.conf - /home/agokhale - /home/anand - /home/asalazar etc. These are all top level folders with the same names.

This is a patch to add an --rsync-exclude option to rsync-2.5.6cvs. File names in .rsync- (or .rsync+) are excluded (or included) from the file lists associated with the current directory and all of its subdirectories. This has advantages over --cvs-exclude for backing up large file systems since the .cvsignore files only apply to the current directory: unless the .cvsignore restrictions apply
