EXT3 developers: I am curious, if EXT3 is currently being used on the root partition in "data=ordered" mode (the default as I understand), and I want to have the it come up in data=journal mode, how do you effectuate this conversion? I would also be curious how to know if anything special is required for doing so for the /boot partition as well. I believe that with the /home partition,

Hi, I am thinking about a non-standard usage of rsync (at least not mentioned in the man file) I want to synchronized my collegues home directories(trees) each night AND store rsync's internal updating commands (reversed) to be able to restore the state of a directory the day before. This would require - saving the internal updating commands in a separate directory - reversing these commands

When I perform a rsync with backup I get 100's of: make_bak_dir mkdir "/export/giger.back.....eary/java/weka/gui" failed: File exists make_bak_dir mkdir "/export/giger.back....ary/java/weka/gui" failed: File exists make_bak_dir mkdir "/export/giger.back...ary/java/weka/gui" failed: File exists . . . My backup command is: rsync -q --backup

Given that no 1.36 has appeared from Fedora Core, I thought I would create the rpm myself. I took the 1.35-11.2 src.rpm from FC3 and updated the spec file for 1.36. However, the build fails. Has anyone successfully created a 1.36 rpm for FC3? If so, what did you need to do? Gene

What the maximum filesize rsync can transfer? I'm trying to rsync one of my servers to another but the rsync is croaking on a file that's barely 1GB. Tips, hints, suggestions? rsync server is AIX 4.3.3 ML11 - rsync 2.6.3 rsync client is AIX 5.3 ML1 - rsync 2.6.4 Thanks -Jeff -- Jeff Schoby Unix/Network Admin City of Columbia, Missouri 573.874.6320

Greetings, I've recently upgraded from Asterisk 1.2 to 1.4. I've been searching for a solution, but am also trying the easy way at the same time. I've now got David of Cepstral now speaking using app_swift from http://www.mezzo.net/asterisk/app_swift.html . The problem is, he sounds way worse than he did when it was asterisk version 1.2. I'm seriously considering either

The following simple patch (against openssh-3.1) moves the test for a trailing dot in the client-supplied hostname so that it is also stripped when using the server option HostbasedUsesNameFromPacketOnly.

Is there any chance for rdiff ? I need to frequently synchronize big text file (60MB+) undertaking small changes and I am interested in differences between the subsequent versions [DNS RBL data in dnsbl format, 1E6+ lines of text, new version every 20m, on average 50 new entries (lines) in every synchronization] I would like to get (small) diff file as result of rsync session and apply it to

Greetings, I've been looking through archives, googling, and reading through man pages to no avail for some time now. I believe I need some combination of rsync -u (update) and rsync --del, and I'm not quite sure how to get it. I'm looking to build a rough implementation of a multi-client rdiff-backup system; in order to do this I'm using rsync before rdiff-backup. (We'll

I'm rsync'ing an rdiff-backup repository to a different machine and I have a few questions I'm hoping you guys can help me out with. Should I use --archive? Or maybe -rlD instead? Can I restrict an SSH key to rsync? I can do it with rdiff-backup with command="rdiff-backup --server" but I can't figure out how to do it with rsync. The rdiff-backup repository I'm

Hello, I want mount directory of one server to another over internet. I was looking to NFS4, but there are no security mechanisms. I need encrypted connection using private key (something like SFTP). Or - if there is in CentOS repo (or EPEL) package, that can mount directory over internet using private key and make differential backup (like rdiff-backup). Thank you very much for links or other

our daily backup is done using the rdiff-backup tool, which in turn utilizes rsync/librsync to do the actual mirroring work. a few days ago we did a refactoring and renamed a bunch of directories. for backward compatibility we maintain the old names by symlinking it to the new names. so, for example, oldname1/ now becomes newname1/, and oldname1 is now a symlink to newname1/. we found that

I'm still pretty new to running a mail server, but one thing I've come to appreciate over the years is a good backup strategy. Since I have always run my own servers for practice and for personal use I don't have access to Enterprise backup solutions. Because of that I usually just fall back to scripts and tarballs and offload the content on a regular basis. Right now I'm

Well, I had the first use of the recovery mode on the RH 8.0 install CD today on a dev system. I changed the mount option for the root partition to data=writeback to see what all the claimed speed increases are about, and the system failed to mount the partition r/w, so the resulting boot failed. After search usenet, it seems other RH folks have had this problem, possibly because it is

Hi, i am new to rsync and i want to use rsync to emulate rdiff behaviour (because i can't install rdiff on the system). What i would like rsync to do is to generate a diff file (like with rsync --write-batch) but WITHOUT changing the destination file. This would allow me to store daily differential updates on the target (i think hardlinking would not help me much as the file is changing every

Hi all. (I am sending this querry here because it is somehow relating to rsync. If i am wrong please pardon me.) I am doing following on these windowsXP and Vista. I am trying to get only incremental backup using "rdiff-backup" (that also uses rsync). I have installed gcc compiler and by following the steps given in http://katastrophos.net/andre/blog/2005/11/02/rdiff-backup-on-windows/

I do not know if this has been reported already (I searched the headers of the recent messages to r-devel) It seems that 'example' in R 2.11.0 has a problem when the help file does not contain any example.

hi, I recently changed my filesystem to ext3 (from ext2), and since then, my hard disk sometimes seems to 'hang' a few seconds (in fact the whole system hangs then, and only the hd LED is on), before continuing normally... This happens for example (not always though) when I untar an archive and try to ls in the newly created directory... Is there an explanation for this? And if so,
