Pleasepleaseplease put this in mainline. I've been experimenting with the new prexfer-exec/postxfer-exec module options (from latest cvs) & I have to say I'm impressed. With some creative scripting, the possibilities are pretty much endless. During my experiments, I noticed a pair of oddities. First up is that scripts run from prexfer-exec/postxfer-exec don't appear to have umask set (files newly created via said scripts are mode 777). [time passes for extra tests] Yep, just verified. umask = 0000 Second is localtime/UTC timestamps in logs -- 8< -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rsync -aPv testfile rsync://lithium:8730/testmodule/ -- 8< -- Jul 28 05:04:58 lithium rsyncd[27358]: rsync to testmodule/ from lithium.elements.lan (192.168.1.3) Jul 28 09:04:58 lithium rsyncd[27358]: recv lithium.elements.lan [192.168.1.3] notification () testfile 133296 Jul 28 09:04:58 lithium rsyncd[27358]: sent 28 bytes received 133505 bytes total size 133296 -- 8< -- I should mention that I'm using a mix of rsync 2.6.5 & 2.6.6pre1 on my various machines (all slackware).
