That is because rsync doesn't believe that it is root. I think I should modify rsync so that it outputs the uid when it is the sender even when it is not root. What your output doesn't show is what the receiver thinks the uid is (which will show if it believes it is root). This is because the receiver is a daemon, and it restricts how verbose it can get (since it logs its output into a log file it doesn't want users to be able to overflow the log files with large amounts of debugging info). There is an undocumented setting in the rsyncd.conf file called "max verbosity" that you can try setting to "9" and then re-run rsync. The daemon's log file should then contain what it knows about the file list. (Aside: the "max verbosity" setting is currently undocumented because it was supposed to be a very temporary debugging helper that was going to be superseded by a flexible logging configuration that J.W. was going to be working on, but no progress has been made in that area, alas). ..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
