Re: [CentOS] RSync Issues
man rsync -i, --itemize-changes output a change-summary for all updates --list-only list the files instead of copying them --ignore-existing skip updating files that exist on receiver -v, --verbose increase verbosity --existing, --ignore-non-existing This tells rsync to skip creating files (including directories) that do not exist yet on the destination. If this option is combined with the --ignore-existing option, no files will be updated (which can be useful if all you want to do is delete extraneous files). This option is a transfer rule, not an exclude, so it doesn't affect the data that goes into the file-lists, and thus it doesn't affect deletions. It just limits the files that the receiver requests to be transferred. --ignore-existing This tells rsync to skip updating files that already exist on the destination (this does not ignore existing directories, or nothing would get done). See also --existing. This option is a transfer rule, not an exclude, so it doesn't affect the data that goes into the file-lists, and thus it doesn't affect deletions. It just limits the files that the receiver requests to be transferred. This option can be useful for those doing backups using the --link-dest option when they need to continue a backup run that got interrupted. Since a --link-dest run is copied into a new directory hierarchy (when it is used properly), using --ignore existing will ensure that the already-handled files don't get tweaked (which avoids a change in permissions on the hard-linked files). This does mean that this option is only looking at the existing files in the destination hierarchy itself. ML schrieb: > Hi All, > > Rsyncing to a USB drive.

In the text below, look for the first series of "poll" system calls. Just after that section is where I initiate the iscsiadm login command. Then about 100 lines later on, it issues a connect call that returns "-1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in progress)". Then it goes back to polling, this time on two sockets including the one it just tried to connect on. In a little while it probably reaches the retry limit and closes that socket. It makes another connect attempt that fails with the same error.

There was and has been some uncertainity around the redhat webappstack packages. I think were at a stage where much of that does not matter anymore. So moving to setting up and managing them in a more elegant way than the testing repos should be possible. in terms of timeline - there is a slightly wider conversation that needs to be had around the whole idea of 'stacks' and what is and isnt ok for centos to work with. since there is a clear product from upstream, might be worthwhile pushing with the WAS stuff first and then moving to expand into other stacks. - KB ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] Simple way to banish IP addresses ?
The best way to do it is with iptables. If you want something "more easily configurable" then some front end for it would be most useful. Webmin most likely provides a graphical interface to do it. Adding rules to drop traffic from IPs or whole subnets is not that difficult if you have a basic understand of IPv4 networking. There are some well documented examples on this page (including one to do what you're after): http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Iptables_command#Examples Regards, Oliver On 12/10/2009, at 9:52 AM, mark wrote: > Toby Bluhm wrote: >> Toby Bluhm wrote: >>> Niki Kovacs wrote: I just set up a web server... and my bandwidth is being eaten by some chinese folks trying to brute-force-ssh their way into the machine.

Approach him like this. Tell him if he plans on moving his business forward within the next 5 years he should think accordingly.

You want to present to the client that you care first and foremost about their business needs. It's a simple calculation - work out what's involved in maintaining the old systems, and compare that to the cost of upgrading. These sorts of conversations are often about the difference between operational expenditure and capital expenditure - your client may be willing to pay more long term support costs, and not be prepared to buy new hardware and pay you to upgrade the systems. It sounds to me that you want to upgrade because you're assuming it's the right thing to do. That's a big assumption - go through the business cases, and make sure your client understands you're on their side which ever way the decision goes.
