Hello I have a problem while synching between two NAS boxes with Linux. First NAS: group staff=50 (3.0.3pre1) Second NAS: groups ftp=50, staff=500 (rsync 3.1.1) I synched with -rptgo, without --numeric-ids. The expected result was that the items on the second group would be staff as well even with a different gid. However it looks like the 50 was taken literally and now all staff items are ftp

Hi I already wrote about this problem half a year ago but didn't get an answer: http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2009-June/023412.html I'm using rsync 3.0.3 on a NAS. In the parameter list I use --timeout=1800. But still I often have rsync stall much longer than that. Some examples: 2009/12/14 23:14:35 [8707] io timeout after 11670 seconds -- exiting 2009/12/14 23:14:35 [8707]

Hi I'm using rsync 3.0.3 on a NAS. In the parameter list I use --timeout=1800. However sometimes I get very big timeout times like this one: io timeout after 12220 seconds -- exiting rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at io.c(239) [sender=3.0.3pre1] rsynd.conf on the receiving side only defines modules, no timing parameters. How can that happen? What can I do to prevent

Hi I'm trying to build a backup system based on rsync. It should work with different destinations (local, share, remote etc) that's why I'm looking for ways how every operation can be controlled from the client side. I want to create full backups and incremental backups. For the incremental backups I use --compare-dest lastfullbackup. This works nicely except that the whole directory

Hi I'd like to rsync a large amount of data over a slow connection, but only during night hours. I couldn't find a parameter that limits the time that rsync is running, only the timeout on idle time. I guess the way to go would be to start rsync, get the process ID and kill the process later on. Has anybody already written a bash script that would do something like that? Are there other

Hi I was wondering what happens if a file that is regularly synched but seldom changes gets corrupted in the copy. As it seldom (or never) changes the mod time will always be the same. But if the content changes (bit flip, bad HD...) will rsync get this and synch it again? Would I need the -c (crc) flag for this to work? That of course slows things down quite a bit. Is this the only way to

Hi, I'm trying to run the following program with lastest wine release. http://www.receita.fazenda.gov.br/publico/programas/irpf/2003/UnicoDisco/irpf2003v1_2.exe The installation runs OK, but when I try to run the program I got a exception. I think the problem is this fixme:file:DeviceIoControl Unimplemented control 256 for VxD device NWLINK How can I solve this? Is there any NWLINK.VXD

Hi I have a backup on a NAS that is quite full. So when I try to backup changed stuff it may run out of space, but only because rsync may try to write a new file before deleting the old one. That not only means changed files in the same place but also moved files, so delete-before wouldn't help. Is there a possibility to have a complete rsync run that only deletes files to make space for the

Hi Is there a way to get the status of a running rsync process? I believe it has to be done by sending a signal, but I can't find it anymore. I'd like to find out if a rsync process is hung or just transferring a lot of data. This is rsync 3.0.3(I think pre1) on a NAS with BusyBox. Thanks bye Fabi

Hello I'm looking for a way to exclude and delete some items but not delete other items. Use case: I'm on Windows where there are folders like recycle.bin and system volume information on every drive. I can exclude them while backing up my data drive. But I now also have other data that is excluded and that I want to delete from my existing backup. However if I use --delete-excluded then

yes, i`d second that. maybe you just try using metaflac to generate the appropriate list of files to sync and then feed that list to rsync. > Gesendet: Dienstag, 02.

Hi, Some years ago I developed a Delphi application for my private use and now I want it to run on Linux using wine. The application uses Paradox database engine. I tried to install the engine itself but failed. Eventually I installed the whole Delphi development environment with wine. It certainly installed BDE but I can not run even the dbd32.exe (database desktop). Machine: RH9 HW: HP

Hi I'm using a cygwin compiled rsync on Windows to backup and restore files from my local Windows computer. I'm trying several destination types: - remote with rsync:// - Samba share \\Server\Share - local drive I'm having problems with the user rights. The backup works ok but after restoring some files I can't access them. I've read that this is because rsync runs as cygwin

Rsync does no locking. Which means that: if you are modifying a file while it's

Hi Has anybody ever tried (and most probably failed) to port rsync to Win32? I know there are versions built with cygwin and there are also other Windows programs that include the rsync algorithm. But neither of them make me really happy. The cygwin version is dead slow on my AMD 3500+ and the Windows programs all make something differently, can't be scripted and/or have an unusable GUI. I

Hi everybody - this is an oddball question. I wonder if anybody has programmed any games in R, such as Sudoku, Tic-Tac-Toe and the like. Or even a flight simulator... R mateys! Let's make some t-tests! Regards, David

Hi all, I'd like to modify rsync to add a flag to compare the MD5 signature of the unencoded audio data in the header of a FLAC file to determine whether or not to transfer a file. The reason being that I've got a large number of FLAC files, many of which are corrupted in the destination volume, but many of which are valid but the tags have been modified. The sizes of both the source and

Hi I'd like to have a list of excluded items that I can always use and combine them with job-specific excludes (or generally filters). Is it possible to use --exclude-from more than once? Do I have to combine the exclude files into one and give this to rsync? Is there another possibility (that also works on Windows)? Thanks bye Fabi
