similar to: [Bug 12440] New: make "rsync -N" == "rsync --numeric-ids" ?

Hi folks, "--numeric-ids" is a lot of text and easy to be forgotten or misspelled. Since it is a highly important option for making backups of remote systems via rsync I wonder if "-N" could be introduced as an abbreviation for "--numeric-ids"? "-N" is not in use yet, afaics. Just a suggestion, of course. Keep on your good work. Regards Harri

Hi, I've been using rsync (OSX Tiger now Leopard) to backup my home folder daily using -a -H -A -X link-dest=dir to make incremental backups. There was a problem though since many files especially images, movies etc would be recopied each time instead of creating hard links. I have been testing the pre5 release and found that it seems to make hard links correctly for all files. I

I'm just starting with rsync(). I grabbed the 3.0.7 source and built it on Mac OS X.6.5 (./configure and ./make reported no problems.) When I try running with -X or -A, I get the following error messages: rsync: unpack_smb_acl: sys_acl_get_info(): Unknown error: 0 (0) rsync: unpack_smb_acl: sys_acl_get_info(): Unknown error: 0 (0) A quick look at the buglist didn't reveal anything to

Hi folks, I've got a moderate number of keys in my ssh config file. Problem: Very often I get an error message like Received disconnect from 2001:db8::8077 port 999:2: Too many authentication failures Authentication failed. AFAIU the ssh-agent is to blame here, trying out all keys he has ever seen. This conflicts with MaxAuthTries 6, set by default on the peer. The solution seems to be to

Hi folks, AFAIK CentOS uses RedHat's source RPMs for building the next CentOS release. I am not sure about the bootstrap procedure and the infra- structure packages, so lets put these corner cases aside. RedHat's "regular" binary and source packages are based on open source (GPL2, GPL3, Apache license, whatever). For building the binary RPMs other open source RPMs with

First of all. Thank you rsync developers and maintainers for all of your work. It is awesome. I love rsync. I can't thank you enough. So this has been brought up before: https://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2010-April/024941.html We are getting this error: stderr: rsync: unpack_smb_acl: sys_acl_get_info(): Undefined error: 0 (0) due to ACL entries that can not be resolved by name at

Returning to this list after a long hiatus: rsync 3 has been working very well for me for many years, as a supplementary backup tool for MacOSX. However, attempting to build the new 3.1.0 release on a brand new Mountain Lion box with my standard 'fileflags' and 'crimes' patches applied, make fails, reporting that 'force_change' is undeclared. In fact, the problem occurs

I've been getting spurious unnecessary copying of files on OSX when using the crtimes patch and the --crtimes -H options (version 3.0.4). I can reliably demonstrate it (on OSX 10.5) by doing this several times (as root): rsync -v -N -axHAX --delete-during --fileflags --force-change /usr/ bin/ /tmp/foo/ I think I've tracked it down to the hard-link processing code in

Hi folks, Since Docker can bind-mount every .ssh directory I am looking for some way to forbid unprotected private keys. AFAICS it is currently not possible on the sshd to verify that the peer's private key was protected by a passphrase. Can you confirm? Regards Harri

Awesome work Wayne. I have been following the various threads about running rsync 3.0.0 on MacOS X 10.4.11 and wanted to confirm that following all the various bits of advice yields a clean running rsync (as tested by backup bouncer). I am running MacOS X 10.4.11 on PPC. The following is a synopsis of my installation procedure (as gathered from the various emails in the archive) - note

Hi, I'm trying to make a small script to get rid of Apple's TimeMachine. The aim is to backup the files of my company. I setup a MacMini with a lot of storage attached to it. The MacMini connects every once in a while to our data server (XServe) through SSH and pulls the files that need to be saved (I'm using the --link-dest option to limit the amount of files transferred, and to keep

Hi All, I'm trying a remote backup for the first time. It is between two laptops, I installed rsync 3.0.7 on both compiled patch -p1 <patches/fileflags.diff patch -p1 <patches/crtimes.diff patch -p1 <patches/crtimes-64bit.diff patch -p1 <patches/crtimes-hfs+.dif f patch -p1 <patches/hfs_compression.diff ./configure make this all works perfectly for local backups, clones

I've added the: /etc/services /etc/inetd entries as well as /etc/rsync.conf with the contents: [io] path = //Volumes/Mac_OS_X/Library/WebServer/iolanguage.com/Io comment = iolanguage source code But I get this error: % rsync -rvR --progress localhost:/ . localhost.dekorte.com: Connection refused rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error:

On a PPC machine running Mac OS X, I noticed that creation time is not preserved for files that are transferred (i.e. versus files that are not transferred, or files that have only attribute changes). I discovered two things that work together to cause this: 1) cmp_time (util.c) doesn't check for negative values provided in file1 or file2. If file2 is positive, and file1 is
