rsync 2.6.1 fails tests on OSF1
At least it does for me on v5.1 It is a result of a bug in sh on OSF1. $var? doesn't do file-globbing if $var contains a / (it does if it doesn't). This causes a touch command in teh merge test to fail. WORKAROUND: Set BIN_SH=xpg4 in your environment while running the test. This causes the POSIX version of sh to be used (see man sh on OSF1). -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
large file support in 2.6.1
The large file support in configure tests for working file-locking. This may fail if you are building over NFS and the NFS locking isn't working. rsync doesn't actually use file-locking, so this test causes it to remove large-file support unnecessarily. A workaround might be to build on a local file system. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
rsync-2.6.2pre1: In clientname.c `AI_NUMERICHOST' undeclared
Hi, I just tried to compile rsync-2.6.2pre1 under AIX 4.3 (gcc 2.95.3) and got the following compiler error: gcc -I. -I. -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -W -I./popt -c clientname.c -o clientname.o clientname.c: In function `client_name': clientname.c:121: `AI_NUMERICHOST' undeclared (first use in this function) In analogy to the coding in access.c I replaced in clientname.c hints.ai_flags = AI_NUMERICHOST; by #ifdef AI_NUMERICHOST hints.ai_flags = AI_NUMERICHOST; #endif and the compiling works.

Rsync uses range-locking in its daemon code to implement the
max connections option.
A workaround might be to build on a local file system.
I think some simple tweaking of the test function might make the test
better. The appended C code attempts to create the lock file in /tmp
and falls back to creating the old conftest.dat if that didn't work.
If you try running this program, it should give you an exit status of
1.

int fd = mkstemp(tpl);
if (fd 0) {
strcpy(tpl, conftest.dat);
fd = open(tpl, O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0600);

[rsync-announce] rsync 2.6.2 released
Rsync version 2.6.2 has been released. It is a bugfix release that mainly fixes a bug with the --relative option (-R) in 2.6.1 that could cause files to be transferred incorrectly. This only affected a source right at the root of the filesystem, such as / or /* (using . as the source after a chdir to / was not affected, however). See the release NEWS for the details of what else was fixed: http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.6.2-NEWS Go to the download page to grab the new version: http://rsync.samba.org/download.html ..wayne.. signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ rsync-announce mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync-announce

Simultaneous rsyncs?
Hi, What would happen if two people ran rsync on the same set of source files to the same destination machine? Do we need some sort of queuing or interlock mechanism to prevent simultaneous rsyncs? We have a script that uses rsync to distribute files from our AFS space here to the local disks of about twenty-five machines around the US and Europe. There are about ten or fifteen people here who update the source directory and run the distribution script. So, someone might update the source directory while someone else is already doing a distribution. That's actually not so bad, since when the first person then does a distribution, things will again be in sync. More problematical is when two or more distributions overlap. What would happen in that case? It takes about twenty or thirty minutes to distribute the files to all the machines on our list. So, it's possible that the two rsyncs would be working on the same destination machine at the same time. If we don't need some sort of queue or interlock, then do we need to run a third rsync after the overlapping pair have finished to make sure that everything's OK?
