hard-link reference error when trying to delete
Hi, Kevin. Thank you for the suggestion. It triggered a memory that I had set some restrictions on this rsync copy a while back. Sure enough, in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys: command="rsync --server -vulogDtpre.iLsfxC --timeout=600 --bwlimit=5120 . dest" ssh-rsa Tacking on --delete in the appropriate spot fixed the issue. That's a big whoops on my part. :-) Appreciate the pointer.

Why deliver+usercheck? deliver+MTA?
Hi, I successfully configured dovecot using virtual users (and LDAP/AD). deliver is the LDA and verifies if the user exists (as recommended in the WIKI). However, the howtos in the Wiki say *nothing* about the case that the recipients should be verified *before* receiving the messages (prevent backscatter, ...). All configurations in the dovecot-Wiki (postfix and exim) just accept the mails

Simple Samba server for "at home" - what do I need and what not?
Hello, after two decades without a dedicated file server at home, it is about time to have Samba. While I am mainly a Linux guy there is a couple of systems that don't find rsync and sshfd adequate. We do have a handfull of standalone Windows 10 machines, a bunch of smartphones and a zoo of home entertainment appliances such as a TV, Sat receivers, IP radios/audio players. In addition to

Invalid argument with version 3.1.3
We reently upgraded our rsync client from Freebsd 10.2 to 11.2 which upgraded our rsync from 3.0.6 protocol version 30 to 3.1.3 protocol version 31. The server remains Freebsd 11.1 with rsync 3.1.2 protocol version 31. Now we get numerous messages like this: rsync: readlink_stat("/disk/homedirs/nber/bstevens/public_html/old/test/press reaction/Foreign

function table
Hi, my problem is the following: I have a large database of insurance-damage data and want to model the frequency of these events. So to fit a distribution on my frequency-data I want to count the number of events in each month via the date of occurrence. Therefor I use this command which works very well: count_table <- table(months(date_occ),years(date_occ)) But there is another

--partial does not "unhide" the files
Hi, I used --partial to transfer files from my local computer (rsync 3.1.2, Debian) to a remote computer (rsync 3.1.1 WD MyPassport Storage device) The files get transferred, but after successful transfer, the files are not renamed from .<tmpfile> to <file>. Where to go next? Here is the verbose output after transferring an empty file heiko at blade:~/Pictures$ rsync

2 questions, frame size and SPEEX_GET_LOOKAHEAD
Hi, Andras, Thanks for the comments. Yes, I am aware of those issues. I probably should have been more accurate on my usage of terms. Actually in my project, the unit collection is a mixture of diphones and words. However seems to me, these synthesizer specific issue is irrelevant to my question about speex. As you said, i merely use speex as storage methods. All I ask for is to get the

Segmentation fault using rsync client on Android device
I've compiled rsync for my rooted Android (armeabi-v7a, 32-bit) device using these instructions: ``` clone_or_update rsync master git://git.samba.org/rsync.git cd rsync ./prepare-source ./configure \ --prefix=$INSTALL_ROOT/rsync \ --host=$AUTOCONF_PLATFORM \ CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -static" make -j8 && make install cd - ``` Best place for instructions to build I could find

Server mode and rsyncd.conf
When rsync is used in remote-shell server mode, the documentation says: "Rsync supports connecting to a host using a remote shell and then spawning a single-use "daemon" server that expects to read its config file in the home dir of the remote user." I have been trying to make rsync read a config file (which I presume should be named rsyncd.conf) in the home directory of the

Passwordless SSH messes with escaped spaces
Hi, I'm trying to use rsync through ssh to pull files from PCs that need to be backup up. I set up the passwordless authentication and things work fine there. However there's a problem when I try to seal off the SSH access to restrict it to limited rsync only using the "command=" in authorized_keys. That by itself works, however not in combination with spaces in the file names.

How to have a directory and its subdirectories as a storage pool
Hi, I would like to use btrfs subvolumes as storage place for VM images to use snapshots. Unfortunately, this does not seem to work in virt-manager at least since the "filesystem directory" storage pool type does not allow me to descend into subdirectories. Is there a trick to do this? Can I do it with virsh, or in the XML? Greetings Marc --

Aw: Re: encrypted rsyncd - why was it never implemented?
from a security perspective this is bad. think of a backup provider who wants to make rsyncd modules available to the end users so they can push backups to the server. do you think that such server is secure if all users are allowed to open up an ssh shell to secure their rsync transfer ? ok, you can restrict the ssh connection, but you open up a hole and you need to think twice to make it secure
