Title: RE: Can rsync handle any type of file?
Hello all,
I'm new on this list and sorry in advance for my english.
I wonder to know why rsync would corrupts a file ? Is there a reason

Best regards.

In technical terms, is rsync capable of dealing with backing up any type of

The problem turned out to be that a new "connect ..." message was

Yep guys thats exactly it!
I'm running 2.6.7pre3.
Just tried the syslog facility option and it didnt work either.
I'll keep trying to get out some clues before delving into the src...
Let me know if you find anything.

Hi Wayne
There should be warnings in the log file about "auth user" being an
unknown parameter every time someone connects to the rsync daemon (in
addition to when it starts), so please do check the log file when
diagnosing daemon problems.
Thanks how could i not see it. I did look in the log fi

Sorry, I just noticed that 2.6.7 has a bug in this area, so I'm looking
into a fix. (Should have done a confirmation test before speaking.

A single-use daemon can write its own logfile; it just needs write-
permissions on the file, or it will fallback on using

The option is "auth users", so adding an 's' should get you going.
(You don't even need to restart the daemon if it's already running.)

Hi,
When I have my rsync daemon running, I get all log messages in a custom format in the file /var/log/rsyncd.log.
This is very convenient as I can cron a script to grep it and mail me a summary of activity every day and then create a fresh file.
I have now switched to using rsync over ssh, s

Hello,
first, a big THANKS to everyone who is involved in developing rsync.
This great tool has simplified my life so much.
I use rsync to synchronize some SMB-Shares to an external firewire-disk.
So I mount the shares into my filesystem (read-only),
