similar to: preserving extended attributes during a file copy over the network

Hi, I have 2 linux machines, SOURCE and DEST on a network. I create some snapshots of the file structure on SOURCE and these snapshots have extended attributes. I want to copy the snapshots from SOURCE over to DEST over the network, but I don't want to lose the information on the extended attributes. I don't think that rsync supports this so I was wondering if anyone knew of a protocol

Hi, What are the limits to file size and file count when doing a rsync transfer using 2.5.6? I was trying to rsync about 500 GB of data with many files and many directories, but it has been stuck building the file list for several hours. First of all, is it possible to transfer 500 GB of data? Secondly, what would the limit for file count be when doing a rsync transfer? Any comments or help

Hi all, Hoping someone might be able to steer me in the right direction and/or help me solve my problem. We have a number of Linux servers (RH6.2 -> RH8) which connect to the same share on a Win2000 Server. We've been working kinda hard to get everything upgraded to either RH7.3 or RH8.0 since we rarely get the opportunity. 2 similar servers (one dev, one prod) access this same window

Attention rsync list members, Do not open up the attachment that comes along with this e-mail because it is a virus. Is there anyway you can stop sending these e-mails to everybody on the list? I've received maybe 3 or 4 of them since yesterday. Regards, Eric

My RedHat 8.0 workstation doesn't want to play nice with Winbind. The rest of our Samba servers (on RedHat 7.3) are working fine, and I am familiar with setting up Winbind. Samba: 2.2.7a (RPM from Samba.org. RedHat's RPMs do same thing.) Kernel 2.4.20 NT 4 domain I'd copied the pam and smb.conf from a working box in testing. Getent passwd and group works, BUT getent group

Hi, I'm trying to setup samba server on FreeBSD-4.7-STABLE, with samba version 2.2.7a. It runs so good (better than our snap server :). I need to know if should be possible, that users can modify, save, and all other possible operations on files except delete it. My users config are, more or less: All users have their uid All users are in same gid Some project admins (they are on

Hello, all-- I've a question regarding using WINS for resolving names while on the unix box. As I understand it, you're supposed to add something to the /etc/nsswitch.conf file, but it's not clear to me whether it's supposed to be 'wins', 'winbind', or 'winbindd' as in the following example: hosts: files wins nisplus nis dns hosts: files winbind

Hi, I'm trying to setup a RedHat 8 fileserver, it must work seamlessly within our 2000/NT network. After some research, I believe the first thing I need to do is install ACL support. I tried doing this once, didn't go well, had to reinstall RedHat. What files do I need and from where, to install ACL support for RedHat 8?

Hi all, I am playing with a test box at the moment running a Samba 2.2.7a domain on FreeBSD 5.0. I wish to enable ACLs, but I am not exactly sure what I am supposed to expect once they are enabled. I have created a UFS2 partition and enabled ACL support using tunefs. Since doing that, I have been able to connect to the Samba shares and modify ACLs, but so far the only things I have been able to

Hi, I've been trying to get SSH tunnelling working with Samba. I'm using a Windows XP and a RedHat 8.0 box. I've closely followed the instructions from the HOWTO manual in order to set this up to no avail. I think the problem comes from the fact that my lmhosts file has no effect on the NetBIOS name cache when I preload it with the command 'nbtstat -R'. I checked the

I've just finished a little encoding set and the following happened: 22Khz resampled, q-0.4 encode = ~38kbs = one error at the beginning only. 22Khz resampled, q-0.5 encode = ~37kbs = 6 to 7 sleep errors in the first second or so, nothing after that. 22Khz resampled, q-0.6 encode = ~35kbs = 14 to 15 sleep errors then nothing. 22Khz resampled, q-0.8 encode = ~33kbs = Many sleep errors. ---

I've been reading this list for a few weeks now and I've given advice on questions that look challenging but I've deleted MANY questions like these: "How do I (easy question found in the documents)?" Though I don't count myself an expert, I've known enough experts to see that they _HATE_ it when you don't invest some time before asking a question. I too have

Hi all, this (altough a big patch) is actually pretty straight forward: It (tries) to preserve ProfileInfo in all -std-compile-opts passes and all X86-Backend passes. There is still some passes that have corner cases where the ProfileInfo is not correct after the pass. Some passes are still missing... How shall I proceed with this?

I have a Samba PDC installed to authorize my windows network clients. And it is running on Solaris. I want to install a one another Samba file server and I want it to authorize windows clients by consulting the PDC. This second server must also paricipate in the domain the PDC is responsible for. How can I do this? Thanks, Cyril.

I run an application on an HPUX 11.0 system that creates report files daily and I am wanting to have those files placed on a W2K server instead of the local drive during creation. Can I do this w/ Samba? Thanks for your time.

This appears to be a feature :-) I'm running rsync 2.5.5 on Solaris 8, and testing transferring files between two boxes with permission preservation turned *off*. I have three files: 700 with permissions 700 770 with permissions 770 777 with permissions 770 The umask for the target system is set to: 007 [I have checked this via prints from the rsync code] When the files get transferred,

Does anybody know more about groups? I am considering switching from NT to Samba domain and have made some test. Unfortunately I need to make two additional groups, except Domain Admin (one of them is Domain Users). Is it possible to make that with the stable version of Samba? And another, but not so important (for now) question. Currently I have a Samba server, providing files and printers

I've just set up a new collection of streams and one of them is having problems. The clients connecting to this one stream only last a few minutes before getting kicked off. I don't know where to start looking for the problem. I'm running Mandrake 8.1 with Libshout2.0, IceS 2.0a and Icecast2 downloaded from cvs only a few days ago (with the mentioned os.h error included ;-) I get the

Thanks for offering to help, Karl. Config - I thought my email was long even without the config files so I didn't include them! They are normal random playlist configs. What aspects are you looking for? CPU - vmstat 1 gives consistant CPU readings of around 2,1,97 for us,sy,id respectively when no one is listening to the streams. There's hardly any change when a client starts listening.
