Re: rsync through ssh - i get an error
hello, 1) ssh is the default protocol of rsync since 2.6.0, so if you are using a new version you should not have to worry about it. 2) check that you used the command as following: rsync -e ssh @:~/ that should do the trick (worked for me) m2f Sent using Mail2Forum (http://www.mail2forum.com).

cygwin rsync performance and bandwidth between two w2003 servers
I have two Windows 2003 Standard Edition Server with 2x 3,0 GHz P4 and 4 GB RAM. On each server rsync runs as cygwin daemon (rsync version 2.6.6; protocol version 29). The two servers are connected through a 2 MBit VPN link. When I sync a single large file or a whole directory, rsync only uses 50% of the available bandwidth. When I do the same between windows and linux server, rsync takes the whole bandwidth. Both windows and linux server have the same settings in rsyncd.conf. Would be great if there is someone with any ideas how to solve this problem!

Re: rsync through ssh - i get an error
i got the reply through mailing list and saw that not all came through... so again: 1) ssh is the default protocol of rsync since 2.6.0, so if you are using a new version you should not have to worry about it. 2) check that you used the command as following: rsync flags -e ssh local_dir [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~rsync_user/ that should do the trick (worked for me) m2f Sent using Mail2Forum (http://www.mail2forum.com).

Re: rsyncing as root when root login is disabled?
Joe Ruby wrote: I'm trying to do a simple rsync: rsync -av [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/backup . But a number of files in /backup are readable only by root, and hence rsync gives these errors: sync: send_files failed to open /backup/etc/mail/virtusertable.db: Permission denied (13) Since root login is disabled, I can't simple do '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. I searched a bit and saw this: rsync -av --rsync-path='sudo path' [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/backup . I tried it -- rsync asks for my password, but then doesn't output anything after many minutes (after which I kill it). So, how can I rsync files from my remote server so all the files are readable and the existing permissions get preserved (e.g. not having to do 'chmod -R a+r /backup'. Perhaps what you have shown in your email is incomplete, but based on what you have written, you have replaced the remote rsync with sudo. Instead you need to invoke rsync using sudo by giving a command to sudo. You might be able to do that using the --rsync-path argument like --rsync-path='sudo path rsync', I have not tried it. Or you could write a wrapper. Google rsync wrapper. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Questions and comments regarding --remove-sent-files (Was: New delete option?)
I've looked back through my mailing list archives, and seen a few messages touching on the same things I wanted to mention, but I figured it might be better to recap, since most of them were sent more than a year ago. I have recently started using the --remove-sent-files option, and have noticed a couple of warts. I'm using it to transfer (move really) gigabyte and larger sized files over a fairly slow connection (--bwlimit=10) and with keeping of partial files (--partial) to minimize transfer time in the event of connection problems. Because the individual files may take a day or more each to transfer, rsync interruptions are not uncommon, and I've had several instances where the first run of a transfer aborted in the middle of the non-first file. Although rsync had successfully sent one or more files before losing the connection or being aborted, it doesn't appear to delete the files until a successful end of the whole rsync. A later restart of the rsync sees that some of the files already exist on the destination and need no update, and those files get left on the sending side when they shouldn't. So, I agree with the parent message that either --remove-sent-files should delete the files immediately after they are successfully sent, or a new option should be added (--move maybe?) that does it that way. I saw a followup mailing list message from Wayne that suggested adding the -I option to cause the desired behavior, and that looks like it would be a good workaround. Maybe all that is needed is to make a new --move option be an alias for --remove-sent-files and --ignore-times. Would this be a fairly simple enhancement? The other issue I wanted to touch on was also mentioned on the mailing list, and was how to guard against the possibility that files on the sending side might have been modified during the transfer (which for me sometimes takes a day or more), and for rsync to realize this and avoid deleting the file and losing those changes. I know this one is a more difficult problem, but I just wanted to see if there might be an easy solution. Wayne, thanks for all your work!

This provides a mv function that's safe against a failure. That is an interesting point. The current option allows you to have identical files that didn't get transferred, and thus don't get removed, but that does mean that if the transfer gets interrupted it might do the wrong thing with a file. I'll contemplate what to do going forward since the --remove-sent-files option was already released. Perhaps a --remove-source-files option should be added that works as you suggested. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
