All encryption is done in chunks, the size varies of course, usually 
between 1 and 256 bits.

 All encryption is done in chunks, the size varies of course, usually 
 between 1 and 256 bits.

Of course, but even if block ciphers are usually used to encode data, 
they are usually used in OFB or other feedback mode that convert them to 
stream ciphers, so that equal blocks are NOT converted to equal blocks 
(this would of course lessen the security A LOT) so the fact that the 
original cipher is a block cipher is totally ininfluent and a change in 
a single bit in the plaintext creates changes from that block until the 
end, in the ciphertext.

Lapo

BTW: using the cipher in ECB (without feedback) is much less secure, see 
the RSALABS FAQ for more infos or other crypto texts.

rsync synchronizes VERY slow

2002-06-06 Thread Zoltan HERPAI

hi,

I have an 20G archive of pic files which would have to be mirrored onto
another server. It contains large JPEGs, around 10k files, one of the
servers is located in Boston, the another is in Budapest, Hungary. I use

rsync rsync://remote_box/remotedir localdir/ -zcvr --progress --size-only

The issue is that the remote server sends the filelist very slow.
Looking into the rsyncd process with strace shows that rsync reads all the
files from byte to byte, and after receiving the filelist, rsync client
does the same. The aim would be sync depending only on the size and the
existence of the files, not comparing each other.
If this is RTFM, please give me the correct RTFM://

TIA,
Wigyori
Zoltan HERPAI

remove -z and -c

compression will not work well on jpegs and you don't want to checksum files

Syntax

2002-06-06 Thread Richard Ibbotson

Hi

Wonder if anyone can help ?

My own internal domestic server was running fine with most things 
until I re-installed today.  Rsync config was done by someone else 
who knows what to do.  I don't.  Seems like a good time to learn :)

I'm trying to backup the contents of my home directory to another 
internal machine which is at 192.168.1.4 from my home directory which 
is at 192.168.1.2.   What are the correct syntax to use ?  I've read 
the man page and can't understand any of it.  So, I was hoping to get 
some help...

I've tried something like...

rsync -cazv 192.168.1.2/home/user *   192.168.1.4/home/user/backup

but this doesn't work even when I make a folder on the other machine 
which is 'backup'.

So, what to do next ?

Thanks

Re: Syntax

2002-06-06 Thread tim . conway

I would start with rsync.1
Your command:
rsync -cazv 192.168.1.2/home/user *   192.168.1.4/home/user/backup
means to sync the directory 192.168.1.2/home/user in the current directory, and 
everything in your 
home directory, into the directory 192.168.1.4/home/user/backup, also in 
the current directory, using checksums on every item,recursively, 
preserving symlinks, user, group, permission, and times, using compression 
(which is ignored since it's a local-only sync), and showing everything 
it's doing.
I think your intention was to sync the contents of /home/user on 192.168.1.2 and of 
the current directory, into /home/user/backup on 92.168.1.4, which is also an error.  
If the destination is remote, all 
sources must be local.  If any source is remote, the destination must be 
local.  The phrase Note that in all cases (other than listing) at least one  of  the 
source 
and destination paths must be local. is easily misinterpred as requiring 
that including something local in the source  list will satisfy the 
syntax.  Also, unless you want to put everything you're getting from 192.168.1.2 into 
192.168.1.4:/home/user/backup/user, you should add a / to the end of 
192.168.1.2:/home/user.  Then, to make the remote paths remote, put a colon between 
the address 
and the path.
To get 192.168.1.2:/home/user to 192.168.1.4:/home/user/backup, you'll have to run 
rsync from one of the other of them. or sync 192.168.1.2:/home/user to a local 
directory temporarily, then from there to 192.168.1.4:/home/user/backup.  The relevant 
section of the manual is 
below.
+
GENERAL
 There are six different ways of using rsync. They are:

SunOS 5.7   Last change: 25 Jan 20021

User Commandsrsync(1)

 ofor copying local files. This is invoked  when  neither
  source nor destination path contains a : separator

 ofor copying from the local machine to a remote  machine
  using  a remote shell program as the transport (such as
  rsh or ssh). This is invoked when the destination  path
  contains a single : separator.

 ofor copying from a remote machine to the local  machine
  using  a remote shell program. This is invoked when the
  source contains a : separator.

 ofor copying from a remote rsync  server  to  the  local
  machine.  This is invoked when the source path contains
  a ::  separator or a rsync:// URL.

 ofor copying from the local machine to  a  remote  rsync
  server.  This is invoked when the destination path con-
  tains a ::  separator.

 ofor listing files on a remote machine. This is done the
  same  way  as rsync transfers except that you leave off
  the local destination.

 Note that in all cases (other than listing) at least one  of
 the source and destination paths must be local.
+
You may also want to drop the -c option.  That's only needed if you are 
syncing files while you're changing them, accessing them from multiple 
machines with the clocks badly out of sync, changing system time 
willy-nilly, or other circumstances that invalidate the timestamp.  It 
adds a lot of cpu and I/O overhead.

 Looks like another casualty of the web site rearrangement.  One that works is 
 http://www.samba.org/samba/cvs.html
 
 I see the URL you gave is referred to at http://rsync.samba.org/download.html.
 

 How should it be fixed, Martin?  I found I have write access to the rsync
 web directory but a symlink to ../samba/cvs.html just changes the error
 from Not Found to Permission Denied.

I think it's better to change the link to point directly to the
cvs.samba.org site.

Practically, you should edit the rsyncweb cvs module, then upload it
to the web site.

(The reason for the rearrangement was to disentangle various samba.org
web sites to allow them to be more easily mirrored without needing the
mirror sites to recreate our complicated httpd.conf.  Sorry for the
disruption.)
