Hi
Thanks for your previous answers.
Now I'm fighting with setting up ssh tunnelling with rsync
Hi
Just wanted to share this with other rsync through tunnelling newbies.
This script will copy files from remotehostname to localhostname 
with permissions/ownership etc. preserved AND with encrypted transfer.

This is the script I've made:
---cut---
#!/bin/bash
# Sets up tunnelling, dsa key needed for ssh autologin (needs to be 
explicit given to the command).:

ssh -i /home/rsync/.ssh/id_dsa -f -C -L 2211:remotehostname:873 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sleep 1000

# ENV var RSYNC_PASSWORD gets destroyed when this script is finish 
executing. Needed for rsync autologin.:

export RSYNC_PASSWORD=somepassword
rsync -auz --delete rsync://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2211/www /var/www
# only list files, test purposes only...
# rsync rsync://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2211/www
---cut---
The script is dependent on a rsync server running on remotehostname.
I have the rsync server running through daemon tools 
(http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp.html) with restricted access using tcprules.
The script also needs to be executed on localhostname in order to work 
as meant to...

Using --keep-dirlinks : recursive symlinks problem

2004-08-20 Thread Ivan S. Manida
Hello folks,
trying to make use of the new --keep-dirlinks feature for a synch port; 
it works excellent but feels incomplete without a way for rsync to 
ignore recursive links.

Example:
# ls -la .
total 6
drwxrwxr-x   2 bldmstr  staff   512 Aug 16 21:42 .
drwxrwxr-x   8 bldmstr  staff   512 Aug 16 21:41 ..
lrwxrwxrwx   1 bldmstr  staff 2 Aug 20 12:07 bogus - ..
if you use '--keep-dirlinks --delete' rsync goes into recursion trying 
to delete unexisting directory at destination.

Is it possible to introduce a feature, or make it a default to ignore 
recursive dirlinks under --keep-dirlinks? Highly doubt this behaviour 
would ever be called for :)

Or please kick me in the right direction for a workaround which would 
make --keep-dirlinks consider sane symlinks only.

thanks for your time,

No problem--as long as you don't try to backup hot database files.
Shutdown Oracle first:)
