Here's a second set of diffs for sanity-checking smb.conf files. This one implements a basic set of checks on netbios names. No, it won't recognize someone using an ip address, but it will realize the dots don't belong: $ testparm Load smb config files from /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf WARNING: netbios name "127.0.0.1" contained a dot, which is only legal in DNS domain

Hi, a few months ago I posted a message about using LDAP to store rsync secrets in LDAP. I received a response about patching the rsync source code with a patch file. I am now finally getting around to doing this, and when I tried to use the patch command 'patch --verbose ./rsync-2.5.6/authenticate.c rsync-ldap.patch' , it gives me the following error: Hmm... Looks like a unified diff

Hi, I'm trying to get rsync 2.5.6 to authenticate users via openldap-2.0.23. I was looking through the mailing list archives and found a patch for rsync-2.4.6 that does this for me. I was just wondering if this is still valid, or if there has been a new patch or new implementation that has superceded this patch. Any help would be great. The message I am referring to is as follows:

Attached please find unified diffs against Samba 2.0.6. I'm hoping that others will find it useful and that it may even find its way into Samba 2.0.7 This patch does two things: - Modifies the handling of the 'netbios name' parameter so that standard_sub_basic() is run on its value when the 'netbios name' parameter is processed. This has to be done this way because

Hi, If anyone is interested, the included patch to rsync-2.6.2 allows you to specify the port number for an rsync server as a global option in rsyncd.conf with 'port = <N>' (where <N> is your favorite port number). Note that this parameter only takes effect when the server is started, not when clients connect. Also, specifying the port in rsyncd.conf takes precedence

Hi all, in our LAN we use a Samba server (version 2.2.9) on Linux (Debian Woody) to provide file services to workstations running (mostly) W2K. WinCVS is a GUI frontend to the popular CVS version control system. After the swap to and from daylight savings time WinCVS erroneously flags all files in cvs working directories on Samba shares as modified (because of the icon color WinCVS users refer to

Rsync team, and interested parties: i was attempting to get rsync to launch from tcpserver[0] (an inetd replacement from djb) and log to stderr for logging via multilog[1] (syslog replacement by djb) and i was unable to get it to log to stdout/ stderr at all.

Hi everyone, I'd like to propose a patch for review. It enhances rsync when patched and compiled with slp support. It adds a new global boolean option, 'disable slp', which can be used to disable SLP advertisements at runtime. The idea behind this patch is to allow distributors to build rsync with SLP support compiled in, but to allow the users to turn it off without recompiling

After an upgrade, I got re-bitten by the 'unix-extensions and wide links' incompat. (They used to be compat but were made incompat in the 3.4.x timeframe due to security concerns). At the time it was suggested I write a patch complete with documentation to describe the fix. The below seems to fit the bill. I was wondering what people thought about it's inclusion in future

Well, I haven't received anything from the LIST as far as replys yet.. but I went through the source code and added what I needed.

In the bufferbloat age, anything that can make for a kinder, gentler bulk transfer protocol seems desirable. This add support for user and server selectable congestion control algorithms. As examples: --congestion-alg=lp # For the tcp-lp algorithm on the command line Or in a subsection: [mystuff] congestion alg = westwood # for a wireless connection And diffserv support: --diffserv=8 for

Hi, the section "Global Parameters" of the current http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsyncd.conf.html says: "You may use references to environment variables in the values of parameters. String parameters will have %VAR% references expanded as late as possible (when the string is used in the program), allowing for the use of variables that rsync sets at connection time, such as

In case others find this of value, I wrote a patch to rsync 2.5.6 to give rsync in --daemon mode the ability to run a pre-transfer and post-transfer command. These options handle our need to prepare a server to receive files and to do some processing after receiving files. The options for /etc/rsyncd.conf are pretransfer script = /some/command/to/run posttransfer script =

the following problem occurs when using samba 2.2.4 or 2.2.5 with ldap support as PDC: any time when a user logs on he is asked to change his/her password. whether he change it or not he will be asked again next time he logs on. this is annoying. the reason is, that the LDAP attribute 'pwdMustChange' is not updated at all. the easiest way to solve this to set the attribute to the

Hi! I am doing backups from a number of machines to an rsync server. For some time I was trying to come up with a solution, which would prevent users from peeking at each other's files, which are backed up. Finally, I've hacked rsync, introducing a new option "write only" for rsyncd.conf. When set to true, this option forbids the transfers from server to the client, thus solving
