I am runninng rsync on Ubuntu. It was installed using apt-get install rysnc. I note that the package has not yet been updated to rysnc 3.0. I would like to update using the tar but I am confused how to update the existing installation. On this machine, I am mainly using rsync to send to a cwrsync server (which I have updated already). Can I just overwrite the rsync executable? Any help

Hi, I am a newbie to Rysnc and a had a quick question, the answer for which I wasn't able to find in the documentations. Currently I have Solaris system A which has files that are being generated and changed in real time. I am running rysnc in daemon mode on A.(server) On system B I use the appropriate rysnc command to connect to system A and sync all the files on B. I am having

Hi, Rsync is a fantastic program, and it does everything we need in terms of file transfer and syncing source and destination file directories. We do have a situation now where we need rsync to transfer the files once only from the source directory. Please let me briefly explain using a simple generic exmple: 1. At t0, we transfer f0 location A to location B 2. At t1, 10 new

Is it possible to configure rsync in server mode, to gain access to root protected files, without the user having to log in as root through ssh? I'd prefer to login as a regular user through ssh and access an rysnc server on the host that's running as root. As far as I can tell, however, that's not possible...am I wrong?

Hello, Can someone point me to documentation on how to best backup a samba member server? I see the wiki currently does not contain one. Is it as simple as backup all shared folders with rysnc or similar that will preserve ACLS along with the smb.conf? I'm currently relying on a raid solution. Thanks. -- -James

Hi I am making an extraordinary claim: rysnc seems to copy all my files, not just ones that have changed or new files. rsync version 2.6.0 protocol version 27 Debian 3.0 Woody I have tested this with one simple file, my example is shown below. Does anyone have any suggestions to rectify this? Regards Gareth example: I create a file called 'testfile' in /tmp/play containing the

Dear list, I'd like to have your expertise opinion on following issue. Out of a concrete need we developed an application that will rsync any changes on a local directory structure to a remove system the moment they happen using the linux kernel watch feature. This is in our opinion much more elegant compared to invoking rsync every x seconds/minutes from cron, or having to use a special

Hello, I search a way to continue processing backup event i/o errors occured on the remote server. I use rsync to make backup of files on a files-server. Recently I had a corrupted file on the files-server and rysnc crash, and don't continue to backup the rest of files. I have found the --ignore-errors rsync option but it seems only about deleting action. On backup server I use this

Hello everyone, I'm new to this mailing list but I have been using rsync for some years up to now. I'm trying to synchronize two directory trees, but I want a special behavior that I didn't find on the net nor in the manual (or maybe there is a combination of options to get what I want but I couldn't find it). Tree A is like: A * * FolderA * * And tree B (on a remote

Hi Andrew, I can't shutdown the old samba box as it will still be hosting the shares. Can I do any of the following? Would it make sense for me to migrate the backend to LDAP ? Or following your first comment, can I setup rysnc every 5 minutes to replicate data. You're right it is a migration path but I can't migrate until this works in the test environment Thank you RT On Wed,

Wayne, I've been experimenting with the {pre,post}-xfer exec options ever since the original diff showed up in patches/ - fantastic stuff. My feature request/change centers around the new RSYNC_ARG# variables. Would it be possible to make these available as an array (ie: ${RSYNC_ARG[#]}) rather than discrete variables? If nothing else, it would greatly simplify chewing through all the args

Hi, I posted a list of problems I was having with rsync 2.5.5 (on Digital Unix 4.0f) which I've now been able to address thanks to some kernel tuning but I still have one outstanding problem - I still have situation where files which are added to the filelist for updating on the remote end are deleted by the client systems' web software before they are sent - at least I believe this is

Hello I have been using cwRsync on some Windows boxes, backing up to a Linux server. I have found some issues which files being open and not being copied etc, so I decided that I would log the output from the rsync command on the Windows clients so that I can look at them. On the Windows boxes, I put the rsync command in a batch file and run that automatically each evening. However, if I simply
