I was lucky enough to get 4 new 1U servers at work. They have Promise Lite RAID controllers, which means that I have to use their proprietary RedHat drivers. I'm a big Debian fan, but I won't be the last to admin these boxen, so I guess RH might be a good thing in the long run.
I'm trying to get one of these servers to be a mirror of the other. I've used cbpk on my Debian box for backups, and I've been impressed by its speed, but I'm curious about rsync. I have rsync running on the master, an nmap shows:
873/tcp open rsync
But if on the slave I run: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /mnt]# rsync -a master.byu.edu::htdocs/ /home/htdocs rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(162)
I also tried piping it through ssh and nfs, but I'm not even able to mount nfs shares - I get a permission denied:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /mnt]# mount master.byu.edu:/htdocs htdocs
mount: master.byu.edu:/htdocs failed, reason given by server: Permission denied
I did get rsync to work by smbmounting the master share and the rsyncing locally on the slave, but it seemed to take forever (like with was doing a normal copy).
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jeremy
