On Linux, you only need to be able to write a file to set its access and modification times to the current time, but you need to own it to set its times arbitrarily, as rsync does when preserving times. This makes me think that rsync can write the destination files but doesn't own them. You said you are using vfat, which explains everything. Vfat cannot store ownership, so all of the files on a vfat partition have the same user and group owners; these owners can be set via the "uid" and "gid" mount options. Other users (like the one rsync is running as) might have write permission, but even if they create files, those files will belong to the partition-wide user owner. If you want to preserve times, you should change either the user running rsync or the user owning all the files on the partition so that they match, or you should use a different filesystem. -- Matt McCutchen, ``hashproduct'' [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mysite.verizon.net/hashproduct/ -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

RE: Update: Re: Help with synchronizing two directories on remoteservers
Can you simply run -netstat- on your PCs and check if you can see something listening on port 22 ? It may also be helpful if you can be more specific about what platforms you experience that problem. Maybe your ssh daemon is being activated via tcp-wrappers and there is something blocking between ?

Rsync over SSH-tunnel A->B->C using daemon on C
Dear, I'm trying to put up a scripts to synchronize my computers (HOST_A and HOST_C). I can connect both via HOST_B to avoid the firewall. I am trying to work with the rsync daemon to avoid hanging. I tried to figure out the mailinglist + FAQ, how to do it, but it seems I misunderstand something, since all your previous help did not work for me. I get the following error when executing the rsync-step: Failed to connect to HOST_C: Connection timed out (116). The scipt I now use is: # On HOST_A the following commands are executed # Start rsync daemon on HOST_C and check rsyncd.conf file ssh HOST_B ssh HOST_C rsync --daemon ssh HOST_B ssh HOST_C cat /etc/rsycd.conf # Create SSH-tunnel ssh -fN -l myusername -L 8873:HOST_B:8873 HOST_C # Rsync folders rsync -auv rsync://HOST_C:8873/module_on_HOST_C/folder_on_HOST_C /folder_on_HOST_A # Close rsync daemon on HOST _C and SSH-tunnel ssh HOST_C killall rsync killall ssh Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

I don't know what "the pc here" is, but this sounds like perhaps serverb has two interfaces, and ssh is only listening to one of them.
