running rsync in $HOME/bin?
Hi, what exactly does rsync when logging in to a remote system? Is this a normal login? So it starts a shell and reads $HOME/profile and $HOME/.bashrc? I must use rsync in my own account and copied rsync to $HOME/bin. But it seems like rsync, started on another machine, does not find the rsync binary. What can i proceed, to run rsync out of $HOME/bin? Thank you for your attention!

How to trigger rsync after file changes?
Hi, what is the best way to trigger rsync after a file upload? verbose: I want users to upload files to Server A. If all upload is done, it should rsync itself to another server. The upload is done via ftp and users don´t want to use rsync themselves, so what I am missing now ist something that triggers rsync if something changed. An alternative would be to use cron, but not a good one for similar reasons. Maybe someone got this problem before? Thank you very much!

Hi, some big files are regularily updated on server A. Rsync should sync that with Server B. If rsync starts in the middle of an upload process, will it copy that incomplete file to Server B?

Fortunately the receive_file_entry() call was already checking this.
The sender code could have possibly created an entry that would overflow
once basedir was prefixed, so I've added code to make_file() that makes
sure that we don't add an entry to the list where that would happen.
Then we can simplify f_name_to() to not take a size limit (since all
flist entries will not overflow MAXPATHLEN).

rsync 2.6.0 BIG memory leak
Greetings all, I have downloaded and built rsync 2.6.0 on our HP ProLiant DL380-G3 servers (2 Hyperthread processors, 4 GB RAM, 840 GB Hard Disk, etc. etc.) running Red Hat 8 with the latest errata kernel (2.4.20-28smp) and updates from HP for RH8. rsync is run in daemon mode from xinetd. When doing transfers the machine requesting the transfer starts to run out of memory. After every rsync transfer there is a large amount of memory that is not freed up. The amount seems to be related to the number of files being transfered, not the number of bytes transfered. It is interesting to note that the transfer is started from the receiving machine, and the memory leak is on the receiving side. The sending side does not experience the leak. I have read other lists where there were memory leak problems with older versions that were related to the files lists and tokens, and I am wondering if that has crept back into the 2.6.0 code. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Kelly -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

This isn't a bad thing, though, as this disk-cache memory will get used for process memory as needed.

Sure, it copies every file that it finds unless you tell it not to. The best way to handle active uploads is to send them to an in transfer dir (which can be ignored) or use a specific idiom for temp-files (which can also be ignored -- see excludes). At the end of the transfer, the ftp sender would then rename the file to its final name/location. If you want to limit files based on recency of update, you'll have to make your own file list and control rsync more directly (such as using the --files-from option). ..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, that's my understanding as well. He also said that the receiving side is initiating the connection (and having the problem), so I'm assuming that he's not complaining about the daemon side. One other thing I thought of: Kelly, check for lingering rsync processe(s) in the process table. That's the only way I know that memory could continue to be allocated at the end of a transfer: if one of the processes didn't actually exit. ..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
2.6.0 in cygwin problem

how about auth users without a password?
Hi, from a generally pleased new rsync user. I have setup a number of services to be accessible via SSH. For most of them, it has been possible to arrange that clients can use a key agent and ssh's level 2 protocol to gain access without the need of entering passwords more than once, at the start of a session (assuming their keys are not stored in the clear). Most of these services can be setup to restrict specific users to specific subsets of the potentially available access. With rsync, this appears to be feasible using the auth users configuration item in rsyncd.conf, but in my efforts so far, this always results in a password prompt. So, this is either a question or a suggestion. How can I use rsyncd.conf to limit module access to specific users (or groups, preferably) without inducing rsync to demand a password? If this is not presently possible, I suggest that a nice enhancement would be to make it possible via some device such as a '*' in the associated password entry. This might be limited to rsync invocations by a currently authenticated user (such as occurs with SSH access) and disallowed for the listen on rsync's port mode of operation. I would like to use SSH to authenticate users and grant access to the machine, leaving more specific rights management to the configuration of individual services. With rsync, these functions appear to be a bit more intertwined than they have to be. If people think this is a good idea, (especially the owners of rsync), I would be happy to revise the code to make it work. Let me know at larry nospacehere brasfield at m s n dot com and I will post the results to this list/thread after a week or so. -- Larry Brasfield -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

GOOD DAY
FROM: MR. MYK KALU DIRECTOR, DELIVERY/OPERATIONS RE: TRANSFER OF OVER US$15M FOR INVESTMENT. MR. MYK KALU, the Director of Delivery/Operations in a security company here in South Africa. Our firm is a security company of high repute with years of outstanding service to the people of Africa especially top government officials and milita ry leaders here in Africa. I have resolved to contact you through this medium based on business proposal that will be of mutual benefit to both of us. I have not discussed this transaction with anybody because it is of top secret. To be explicit and straight to the point, Some time early 1997, a reputable client of ours deposited a consignment in our company's vault for safe keeping. And since then our client has failed to come forward to claim his consignment, which has accumulated a considerable amount of money in demurrage. Consequently, in our bid to contact this client to redeem the demurrage which his consignment had accumulated we discovered that our client was the former president of the Federal Republic of Zaire, who di ed of illness after he was dethroned in the same year the consignment was entrusted into our care. Since the death of our client President Mobutu Seseseko, none of his benefactors has come forward to claim the consignment with us, which means that non of his relatives or aids had any knowledge of this consignment. Hence out of curiosity I decided to s ecretly find out the real content of the box.This I did with the aid of a sophisticated scanning machine. And to my surprise I discovered that the two boxes that were registered as treasures by our client actually contained a considerable amount of money in United States Dollars estimated to be over US$15million US Dollar. Since this development I have been nursing plans secretly. I also found out from enquiries and the foreign media that our late client siphoned a lot of money from his country while he was in office as head of state. It is my conviction that the consignment in our vault was part of the money that our client siphoned and now that he is dead there is no trace to this money in our care. I am now soliciting your noble assistance to assist me in transferring this money out of South Africa to your country for immediate investment with your assistance. I have also decided that you will generously be entitled to 40% of the total amount. Upon my receipt of your reply confirming your willingness to assist me of this transaction, I will immediately arrange and transfer all the rights of ownership of this c onsignment to your name to facilitate your easy clearance and transfer of the complete funds to your country for onwards investment. This transaction is 100% risk free. Please maintain absolute confidentiality on this matter. I await your most prompt response. Yours faithfully. MR.
