If you're using ssh or rsh as your rsync connection, you can simply do this: ssh host rm /mydir/foo /mydir/bar /yourdir/baz or even this: ssh host xargs rm -rf /tmp/local-list-of-files-and-dirs If you're trying to do this by talking to a daemon or a restricted rsync-only ssh setup, you should be able to transfer an empty directory with some simple excludes to do what you want, but it's easiest to copy into each directory separately. For instance, if you want to delete mydir/foo, mydir/bar, and yourdir/baz on host host in module mod, you could do this: mkdir emptydir rsync -av --include=foo --include=bar --exclude='*' --delete emptydir/ host::mod/mydir rsync -av --include=baz --exclude='*' --delete emptydir/ host::mod/yourdir rmdir emptydir Thanks. I opted for the straight ssh option and it solved the problem in a simple and foolproof way. I don't know why I didn't think of that. But there you go.

[Bug 1985] New: rsync hangs reading pipe
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1985 Summary: rsync hangs reading pipe Product: rsync Version: 2.6.3 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: core AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (got this bug report as maintainer here at suse) If rsync runs with --link-dest and there is a named pipe in link-dest with the same name as one of the regular files in the source dir, rsync hangs in opening this pipe (to compare the content with the file). If the object types are different (file vs named pipe), no comparison is needed any more. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Re: Configure error: Cannot find a type to use in place of socklen_t

I would recommend snagging the cygwin source archive and looking to see how they compile rsync. When last I looked, I didn't see any special configure code (which was a while back), so perhaps you just need to install some developer packages (i.e. you might have missing header files). ..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

Yes, it is by design since you just omitted the directory in the arg list, and rsync can't assume it should delete args that don't get mentioned on successive commands. Rsync only deletes inside directories that it sends, so either put the items you want to backup into a single directory and send that single directory (perhaps using excludes to avoid sending too many dirs), or see the following message for how to delete things remotely: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg11823.html ..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

You probably didn't really mean to use :: -- use : instead (and stop that rsync daemon -- you don't need it if you go this route). Alternately, read the rsyncd.conf manpage to learn how to properly setup a rsyncd.conf file, complete with one or more modules (and leave the daemon running if you go this route). ..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

Let's make a small deal
Let's make a small deal - I will show you something and you will help me a little =) As a former Internet security specialist, I constantly keep an eye oneverything that happens in the Internet.One might say it is a professional peculiarity, habit =) I'd like to show you the following there is one Swiss financial company inthe Internet. This company was conducting a promotion campaign 8 months ago.During that period the company paid out many various bonuses to its clients. Thepromotion campaign lasted 15 days. Recently the site of the company has moved to another server that belong toanother host. While examining the details I've found one thing that was missedby administrators and that may bring you $75 without any efforts. Your part of the deal - to be registered under me. To specify me as yourreferral (sponsor).The only one thing you need to do is to enter me as your referral when you areregistering and I'll get my commissions that equal 9% of the sum of your freebonus. Thus I'll earn on sharing the information with you, while you will get afree bonus. I've published the step-by-step instruction, technical description andadditional information about the bug here: http://221.2.162.20/bar/index.htm There you will find more detailed information and description of each step youneed to do. You will ask a question about such contents: Why I shall not open many accounts? Why I tell it to you? The secret is simple. This company well watches that one person had only a unique account. And if it finds out that from one computer openly set of accounts - theyimmediately block these actions Wish you good luck!Yours forever,InetInspector ___ rsync-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync-cvs
