User NONE using rsync in Windows server
Hi, I'm using rsync with cygwin to synchronize two windows servers. I've got files in server side with full permisions to Administrator user, but when i synchronize it with another windows server, the file placed in client side has a new group called NONE with read , write and execute permisions. I'm using the following line to call rsync: rsync -zvvvr --perms --owner --group --progress --delete --size-only --owner [EMAIL PROTECTED]::test_synchro C:\test And this configuration in server side: use chroot = false strict modes = false hosts allow = * log file = rsyncd.log pid file = rsyncd.pid # Module definitions # Make sure that writable modules are implemented as subdirectories of cwRsync installation # directory\data. That would ensure propagation of correct ownership for files/directories. # [test_synchro] path = D:\test read > transfer logging = yes comment = test to mayas01 from picture (wwwroot\PICTURES) Does anyone know how i might fix this error?

Re: User NONE using rsync in Windows server
Hi, Probably you don't have environment variable CYGWIN=nontsec defined somewhere in your system. By default, cygwin TRIES to map unix permissions to windows acls and updates permissions accordingly. This may work and make sense to some extent, if you have a full-blown cygwin environment and always use it. Mostly this is not the case. I recommend to use CYGWIN=nontsec when running rsync, to make sure that cygwin does not disturb your windows permissions. See http://www.itefix.no/phpws/index.php?module=faqFAQ_op=viewFAQ_id=12 for more info. Rgrds Tev cwRsync maintainer Hi, I'm using rsync with cygwin to synchronize two windows servers.

patch for replacing non-printable chars in filenames
There's a bug reported in Debian about the tty being screwed up by wierd
filenames, see http://bugs.debian.org/bug=242300
On the one hand, find will also do this. On the other hand, ls will
replace such chars with a question mark. Upon inspection, it appears to
be fairly simple to also do this in rsync (in the rwrite() function).
Here's a patch. Opinions? Perhaps don't do it unconditionally, i.e.
offer some way to turn it off?

I think that a better place to munge the name would be in the safe_fname() routine in utils.c (which already munges newlines characters into question marks). The reason I didn't change any other characters was because I feared that it would mangle foreign filenames that use high-bit characters. I'd want some feedback from such users before accepting such a patch. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Upon inspection, it appears to be fairly simple to also do this in rsync (in the rwrite() function). 1. find's output is mostly for another program's input, not for tty. 2. ls does --hide-control-chars by default only if isatty (STDOUT_FILENO). Here's a patch. Opinions? Perhaps don't do it unconditionally, i.e. offer some way to turn it off? I'd make it like ls, i.e. when descriptor is a tty; also I'd add some option to enforce --hide-control-chars also for non-tty. -- ldv pgpQQas3RA4cg.pgp Description: PGP signature -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Copying from one networked filesystem to another
What sorts of options might I give to rsync, to optimize transferring data from one networked filesystem to another? Transferring directly between the fileservers is not an option in this case, for technical reasons. What sorts of options (or system modifications) might I use to help rsync get through a HUGE list of files? We need to be able to add as well as remove files. We've been using: /usr/local/bin/rsync \ -a \ --whole-file \ --stats \ --progress \ --block-size $(expr 1024 \* 1024) . $dst Thanks! -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

I probably should add some hardware specs: The networked filesystem clients are 4 CPU, 2790MHz Xeons. The network between all 3 links (two networked filesystems, one rsync) is gigabit ethernet, with jumbo frames enabled. The source filesystem is considerably slower than the destination filesystem, but I have not quantified to what extent.
