No. Rsync has to build a list of *every single file in the filesystem*,
along with - at a minimum - last modified datestamp. Rsync needs to be
able to propagate deletions if necessary, and to do that, you have to
compare the entire list of all files (not specifically excluded) in the
specifie
But isn't building this exact file list what an ordinary call to rsync
is supposed to do (when not forcing checksum calculation)? So why is
rsync so much slower than find?

I still get the same error with --force --delete.
There needs to be a chmod on dir before the files and dir can be deleted.

And so it seems we've come full circle back to just use tar. ;-)
But why would you want to use rsync if you've already built your file
list? Seems kinda pointless... I mean if it got touched, you definitely
want to copy it, so, yeah. =)

rsync (2.5.[67]) --delete fails on dirs with the w bit cleared. (example below)
Rsync will sync a dir with w bit clear, but will not remove it with --delete.
This is not a big problem, but it will create situations where there are
'orphaned' files.
Has anyone else had this problem?

This does bring up one point though. Is there any way to optimize file
list building? It seems like that turns into a huge bottleneck in the
"lots of files" situation.

Hello Rsync users,
I,m using rsnapshot, an incremental backup too based on rsync to backup data
from remote servers using ssh. The data mainly consists of windows shares
(samba & windows NT4 Server). Most of the shares backup ok but when backing
up some shares the following error is recorded in
Hi,
does anybody know, how a bash shell script looks, which automatically
enters the ssh password?
the rsync call should be:
rsync -avz -e ssh /home/johndoe/data/repository
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/johndoe/junk
the call causes a password question.
Is ist possible to automate that by a cron? If

I am trying to work out a backup solution whereby an entire Linux drive can
be rsynced to a mounted external firewire/usb hard drive that has a vfat
filesystem on it.
To preserve ownership and permissions it is necessary to do something like
tar -cf dir1.tar dir1/ | rsync /win/rsync
however thi

Hi, I've just started with rsync and have it running in
daemon mode on my remote site. I would like the remote
site to be able to delete directories and have these
