Hi folks,

I have recently installed rsync.2.6.9. on CentOS4.x boxes. That was my first backup yesterday.

But I notice that some hidden (or dot files) are not copied to the other host on the network. And group and ownership of the files are changed to “nobody” while files and folders permission are copied properly. So what am mission here can anybody shed light please?

Here is the result;

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Number of files: 101558

Number of files transferred: 94209

Total file size: 21140359756 bytes

Total transferred file size: 21140357580 bytes

Literal data: 21063075446 bytes

Matched data: 0 bytes

File list size: 7819534

File list generation time: 62.368 seconds

File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds

Total bytes sent: 21077482260

Total bytes received: 1884192


sent 21077482260 bytes received 1884192 bytes 3231792.48 bytes/sec

total size is 21140359756 speedup is 1.00

rsync warning: some files vanished before they could be transferred (code 24) at main.c(977) [sender=2.6.9]
