Wayne Davison <way...@samba.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution| |FIXED --- Comment #1 from Wayne Davison <way...@samba.org> 2011-09-07 04:33:21 UTC --- I agree that if the user specified --password-file=FOO, that rsync should use FOO, and die if that fails. I've checked in a change to the master branch in git, and will probably make the same change for 3.0.9. Note that another way to avoid a password prompt (for those using an older rsync) is to export a bogus password (NOT the actual password) into the RSYNC_PASSWORD environment variable in any script or crond file that is calling rsync. That way any failure in processing the password file will use the bogus environment information rather than prompting for a password. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
