Hello, I'm trying to make rsync work over ssh. I've read several possibilities how to do this, but I haven't succeeded so far. Here's what I want to accomplish : Internet server <==== SSH Tunnel over the Internet ==> Firewall <-----rsync ----> Backup server (rsync & SSH client) (SSH server) (rsync daemon) In plain text : - I want

Hy all, I'm a new rsync user and my english may be poor. I try to sync two folders between two machines using ssh and 2.6.9 rsync version on each. My purpose is to sync only files called "*.lic" in each subfolders. On the source machine I want to sync : /home/dps3/public/Lic/Lic /home/dps3/public/Lic/Lic2 /home/dps3/public/Lic/Lic3 to /home/dps3/public/Lic/Lic9 On each

I am transferring some files from a RH7.0 machine to a RH7.2 machine as root with a cron job, using the following: rsync -avt /home homeserver::home rsync -avt /etc homeserver::etc Some of the files transfer OK, but I get: building file list ... done failed to set permissions on home : Operation not permitted home/brad/ home/ftp/bin/ home/ftp/etc/ home/ftp/pub/ home/rsyncuser/ failed to set

I have so far been unable to get rsync to work properly in a test setup. Does anyone have any ideas? Both PCs are running RedHat 7.2. The Server: IP Address 192.168.0.202 Server Name: RH72TB hosts.allow ALL: 192.168.0.201 rsyncd.conf: [testmodule] path = /tmp The Client: IP Address 192.168.0.201 hosts file: 192.168.0.202 RH72TB I have run "rsync --daemon" on the server.

I have read the MAN page and the Rsync page and have set up an /etc/rsync.conf but I can't seem to get it working. I have tried starting the daemon and adding the correct entry on the server hosts.allow file, but I just get "Connection refused" from the server. Surely this can't be that difficult, but I am at a bit of a loss. Can anyone help? Regards, Brad

Hi, hardlinking (-H) works perfectly while using a syntax like -avhxSDH <SRC> <DEST> Now I have to mirror multiple SRC directories which contain hardlinks. e. g: src1/a is a hardlink to src2/b -RavhxSDH SRC1 SRC2 DEST does not preserve hardlink a and b in DEST. Is there any chance to do that? Thanks lopiuh -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I attempted to write a script that would connect to the remote rsync server and run rsync and then close the connection. I am finding that sometimes the backgrounded ssh session works -- and sometimes note. I following the syntax at: http://rsync.samba.org/firewall.html though there is NO middle system. heres the script with the commands just echoing the commands to the screen. What I am

I have two servers which I will refer to as a LIVE and DEV servers. On the LIVE server, I have a script that executes the following rsync command: rsync --links --verbose --progress --archive \ --exclude="=imagebase=" --exclude="events" \ --delete \ rsync://rsyncuser at DEV.domain.com/path/on/DEV /path/on/LIVE/ My issue is with the --delete part. While I want the

I am trying to use rsync to transfer some directories from a RedHat 7.0 box to a RedHat 7.1 rsync server via a cron job. The cron command line: 00 00 * * * /usr/local/bin/emailbackup > /tmp/backup.log 2>&1; mail -s "Rsync Backup Log" my@emailaddres < /tmp/backup.log The 7.1 rsyncd.cond; [home] path = /home/brad/data/emailbackup read only = no uid = root gid = root The

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 hi, on OS X, when you try and use something which depends on X11, and you don't have XQuartz installed, you receive an error message, it directs you to download XQuartz, and then it euthanizes your process. (my guess is that there is a skeleton X11 dylib installed in OS X by default, and it is responsible for the error message and the

I have Rsync working ok, backing up some server directories onto another server each evening. If I do an rsync back up of a directory - called "test", for example - and in the "test" directory there is a file called "testfile", it gets backed up OK. However, if that file, "testfile" gets deleted from the original "test" directory, when I run

Hi, Horde seems to be quite the problem child. It sorta kinda looks like session handling is entirely broken. kronolith will let me in, but not for long. Then I get "invalid token" and am bounced back to the home screen. imp won't let me in at all. This behavior is completely broken: I get a log in screen and a message in /var/log/messages about not being authorized for IMP (which

Hi, in my backup script I'm using the "-L" option to transform symlinks into referent files/dirs. Now I'm also using the "--delete" option. Unfortunately "--delete" doesnt work if an error like "Symlink has no referent" occurs. So far the only solution for that seems to not use the "-L" option or to add "--ignore-errors". It

I'm trying to get rsync to copy some files across the network to a particular folder, but it always drops them in the user's home directory and changes the folder permissions of the home directory from drwxr-x--- to drwxr-xr-x. Can anyone tell me how to fix these problems? I'm using rsync like this: rsync -avz --delete --include '/etc' --exclude '/*' / user at

Hello rsync people I thought I knew how to use rsync, but I can't work out how to use it to do the equivalent of cp -al dir1 dir2 where dir1 and dir2 are both local and on the same disk. In other words I want to make dir2 a copy of dir1, with every file hard-linked to its counterpart in dir1. Why not just use cp? Because I want to be able to do it as a user who has sudo

I am in the process of writing a script on some testing machines and I am wondering if having it perform a dry run and itemized the items if it would provide a list of differences such as file size and name etc conflicts -- Jonathan Aquilina -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I was trying to use rsync to send files to a fileserver using an rssh restricted server. It refuses, saying that trying to override the shell with -e is forbidden. I didn't type "-e". When I look at the source, I see /* Checking the pre-negotiated value allows --protocol=29 override. */ if (protocol_version >= 30) { /* We make use of the -e

I use rsync on an SSD which is slow at writing, but very fast at reading, so it is important to me to avoid writing data. I had hoped rsync would only write changes in files when using --inplace, but it seems not: # Make a 1 GB file $ perl -e 'print "x"x1000000000' > 1g # rsync it (as expected this costs 1 GB writes) $ ./rsync-3.1.0/rsync --progress --inplace -cva 1g 1g.copy
