IF ssh is a replacement for rlogin,rsh etc I can accept it respecting rlogin=false as rlogin does and rsh does not, however scp is a replacement for rcp, and rcp does NOT use rlogin attribute, so the implementation is NOT standard as scp fails if rlogin=false, but rcp succeeds, as documented. thanks mark

hi... i've got an "access denied" issue with rsh on one of my boxes (and before we start, no "use ssh" comments.. rsh is what i'm dealing with for now!!) i've got a few boxes in my network, and i can successfully rsh into them with no issue. however, on one box, i can't access it using rsh, and i'm running out of things to try... kind of curious. i can

Dear sir, Having read all the descriptions of how easy it was to use rsync, I tried it for the replication of two servers. Testing rsync 10.0.1.4:/tmp/repl/ /tmp/repl I got the following error message (after a period which seemed to be a time-out): 10.0.1.4: Connection refused rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream

You can now do "make check" in the CVS version of rsync and it will run some elementary self tests. It also runs these tests on build.samba.org, which should help catch unintended regressions, particularly on unusual platforms. Contributions of more test cases would be welcome. -- Martin

I am doing rsync over a private network. Encryption is not required. Currently rsync over ssh works, but requires too many CPU cycles (especially when doing a lot of transfers) on a CPU-bound system. I need to use rsh instead. The problem is, I can either set rsh to allow transfers without a password, or it won't let me transfer files at all. I need rsh to ask for a password. The network

Hi, GridEngine (http://gridengine.sunsource.net, aka. SGE) is an opensource batch system for clusters. They have an integration with SSH: http://gridengine.sunsource.net/project/gridengine/howto/qrsh_ssh.html The idea is that instead of using a modified rsh/rshd, they wanted to OpenSSH. However, in order to provide full job control, they need to add a few hooks in OpenSSH. Question: - Is it OK

People, This doesn't seem possible - would it be possible to hack a version of rsync to do it? As an exercise, I want to create a VM image (or at least backup of all the files with rsync) from a SCSI drive in an old Red Hat (NOT Enterprise) v5.2 Linux 486 machine (circa 1999 that does have rsync on it but it has protocol problems talking my server). The 486 has: - an ISA Adaptec 1542

Dear Open SSH and TCP Wrappers Colleagues, We are trying to use open ssh 3.1p1 on SPARC platforms under Solaris 2.8 using gcc 2.95.2, in conjunction with tcp wrappers 7.6 (IPv6 version). The wrapping of open ssh is not too well documented but I think we have figured most of this out (hearty thanks to Wietse Venema, Jim Mintha & Niels Provos for their helpful email exchanges) -- but have one

Everything seems to work, though I still have trouble with scp. The behaviour is not protocol dependent - acts the same with either. (Using RedHat 6.2) When I scp <file> <host>:<dir>, bash is invoked as a login shell on the server side host - this doesn't seem right. With my /etc/profile, I get Dec 6 15:06:20 amethyst sshd[3027]: error: select: Bad file descriptor in

Hi, I am having trouble getting rsync (v2.5.0 with the latest version of cygwin) to work between my Win2K (SP2) and my Solaris 2.6 server. Both machines are running the same version of rsync. Each time I run rsync, I get the following error: --------------------- C:\rsync>rsync server1:/tmp/file . Terminal read: The parameter is incorrect. rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read

Hi all, I inherited a cpu-stats script from the previous *nixadmin at our department. This script relies on a rsh-command to get the vmstats from the remote machines and then using a perl script to push it to a web server. Now I''ve just added a new machine running CentOS 5.2 x64 to the script and I get the error message in the subject line; "poll: protocol failure in circuit

Hi there, rsync version 2.5.5 protocol version 26. I seem to be having some trouble using rsync to ignore permissions on a remote host when syncing back to a local host. I want it to listen to the umask of the user running the rsync locally. Eg: [remote host - I've touched a file made it 4750, etc, etc] hostb $ mkdir -p /data/rsync/temp hostb $ touch /data/rsync/temp/foo hostb $ chgrp

Thanks to everyone who has replied to my emails so far - to summarise: AIX allows setting of rlogin=false and and a su group, or a list of users that are permitted to "su" to root. ( or other functional ids ) This means with entries in /etc/ftpusers, it is possible to : 1/ Track who used root via sulog and or external logging 2/ Protect root even if the root password is compromised 3/

Is it possible to use encryption only for authenticate and then switch to no encryption? I've looked at the code for OpenSSH 3.5p1, cipher.c, and it looks like the answer is no, at least for protocol 1. However, I cannot tell if that is a deliberate design limitation of the implementation or if it is inherent in ssh protocol 2. My dilemma is a customer who wants to use their network IDS

Below is a patch that adds the ability to have a none cipher and mac for protocol version 2. By default, sshd will not allow these to be used; an admin will have to explicitly allow them in the Ciphers and MACs section of sshd_config. Additionally, the client will not use these unless explicitly instructed to by the user. The actual name of the cipher is 'none2', to distinguish it

Hi everyone! I'm trying to do something along those lines: rsync --rsh=ssh --archive foo:/data/* bar:/data/ Where foo is on the other side of a firewall, bar has no network connection to foo, and the machine I'm executing this on can connect to both of them. Unfortunately, copying from remote to remote doesn't seem to be possible with rsync. There's no mention in the Manpage as
