RE: Want my RSYNC documentation link to be added to your resources list.

So you can do anything, any sort of synchronization between these two directories. That statement cannot be logically accurate, however rsync does come astoundingly close. That does explain WHY many of the options. Further, options are required to determine what happens with incomplete or

RE: Running 'rsync' as root misses files

Sounds like rsync is being run, not as root, but as the same user as that of the program it is called from. It might be useful to know what you are doing that you think is running rsync as root. (In general, having one program with the ability to run a different program as root is maybe not such a

I think what you are doing runs rsync on the remote server as user robert which has the home directory of /home/robert/ Second case is trying to logon to rsync itself and fails. contents of /etc/rsyncpasswd are what? (or if it is world readable rsync doesn't like it) /etc/rsyncpasswd

RE: does rsync run as a service?

RE: Need Help with rsyncd.conf

[root] is one of several. Simplest and easiest is to have several of them each able to do (only) what it needs to do. Limits the damage due to fumblefingers, probably the greatest real threat. If all of the stuff belongs to one user, then UID = user GID = user prevents a lot of problems.
