Re: Doubt in Rsync !!

[Lakshminarayanan Radhakrishnan]

Dear Mr.Tim,

Thank you very much for your valuable suggestions.

Now I am able to mirror the set  of files from one system to  another system which are on the net.

Yesterday, I calculated it is mirroring  188MB file in 63 sec from one side to another side.
Good performance.  Is anywhere  the performance  about rsync is mentioned  in terms of  file size / time.

I am going to use this rsync command in script continously to mirror the two systems always.

Once again thanks,

  regards,
  laks

I just played back your mail in my head, and realized that you mentioned
the rsync server.  I read your command, from which it was plain that you
were NOT trying to contact a rsync server, and gave instructions based on
that.  In case you were trying to contact a rsync server (rsyncd), I
suggest you read the man pages for both rsync and rsyncd.conf.  the rsync
manpage explains how to invoke rsync to have it be a server, and the
rsyncd.conf manpage explains how to set up the required configuration
file.  The rsync manpage also explains how to invoke rsync to CALL a
server (as opposed to starting a temporary process via an external
transport to act as your remote server, as your commandline showed).
Direct consultation of the documentation which Tridge, Martin, Dave, and
everybody else has put so much work into, can cover the broad
possibilities with much less latency than an email list.

Ok:  You're using an external transport (rsh, unless you've defined
RSYNC_RSH as something else(probably ssh)).  First thing to check is
whether you can rsh to destinationmachine.  See what happens if you do
"rsh destinationmachine uname -a".  Does this report back the information
for destinationmachine, or does it give you "Permission denied".  If so,
get rsh working.  From your error, I'm certain this is the problem, as if
it were a permission problem on a file or directory,  you'd get an error
more like this
