Is there a way to get rsync ntfs aware?
rsync doesn't care what the source or target filesystem are. If rsync is running as a non-root user and that user isn't the owner or group of the target filesystem's directories, then yeah, it's not going to be able to change the permissions (the rsync user has to have write permission on the target). It'd help if you'd post the rsync error messages you're getting. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ri...@alldigital.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - A squeegee, by any other name, wouldn't sound as funny. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/C2MYRUJX7MOUFQ5O3K4NOFF6HZ3WNQCV/
