rsync OS X to Linux = problem diacritical marks

2003-08-14 Thread Samuel Hug
hi all

i would like to sync a directory tree on a os x server to my linux 
backup server.
in generall it works, but i've asserted that folders and files containg 
a letter with a diacritical mark (for example: ä,ü,ö) cause problems. 
they are beeing transefered but show up with a messed filname on my linx 
server.

has someone an idea how to solve this problem?

brest regards
sam

HFS support (resource forks)

2003-08-14 Thread Samuel Hug
hi

will the official rsync version in future maybe support HFS(+) 
filesystem, like rsyncx does right now? i ask because the rsyncx version 
dosen't run on my linuxbox and the feature is only supported if all 
systems use rsyncx.

regards

options: --backup-dir and --sufix not combinable?

2003-07-31 Thread Samuel Hug
hi there

i would like to backup any file which is updated into a specific 
directory, --backup-dir= does work well. but i also would have 
multiple backups from each file, to make this possible i thought i 
combine --backup-dir= with the --suffix option and attach a 
timestamp to each files name.
well if i use --suffix alone it works, but in combination it won't 
work, it just overwrites the old file in the backup-dir.

is this intention?

best regards
sam

make fails all versions 2.4.8 on older linux machine(clientname.o)

2003-07-24 Thread Samuel Hug
hi

i'm trying to update an older rsync version due to some minor errors 
during syncing with an up to date version (2.5.6) of rsync.

my problem is that the make process actually won't finish, here is the 
output:

clientname.c: In function `client_addr':
clientname.c:72: warning: implicit declaration of function `getnameinfo'
clientname.c:73: `NI_NUMERICHOST' undeclared (first use this function)
clientname.c:73: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
clientname.c:73: for each function it appears in.)
clientname.c: In function `lookup_name':
clientname.c:229: `NI_NAMEREQD' undeclared (first use this function)
clientname.c:229: `NI_NUMERICSERV' undeclared (first use this function)
clientname.c:234: warning: implicit declaration of function `gai_strerror'
clientname.c:234: warning: format argument is not a pointer (arg 4)
clientname.c: In function `check_name':
clientname.c:329: warning: format argument is not a pointer (arg 4)
make: *** [clientname.o] Error 1
i searched on newsgroups about this problem, i found 1-2 posts with 
exactly the same problem... but no solution :( so i try this here again.
i tried to compile older version, the latest that work is 2.4.8 but this 
hane haso some errors for me to, and i really ned an fully functional 
version.

the system is a linux suse 6.1, so it is a little bit old but i can't 
switch this one cause it is still in use.

does someone know how to solve this problem, or at least to what it is 
related?

best regards
sam
