Rsync question

I wrote a shell script to sync files from one server to other server everyday.   /usr/local/bin/rsync -azublpv --delete \ --exclude "log/*" \ --exclude "*~" \ --exclude "*tar.gz" \ --exclude "*.psd" \ --exclude "*.norsyn" \ /opt/www/www.test.com/  server2:/opt/www/www.test.com

David, Thanks for the response -- now I understand! I like the idea of the --partial-pad option, but I'm very new to Linux, haven't compiled anything, and I don't think I could make good use of a patch. Someday, maybe. (I think the --partial-pad would be a useful option to people trying to r

Re: --compare-dest usage (was Re: [expert] 8.0 Final)

Dave, Thanks very much for the reply! I'm still uncertain about what happens if a single file rsync is interrupted partway through (and I've specified the --partial option) -- will rsync take advantage of the old copy of the file in --compare-dest and the partially rsync'd file (now truncated)

Re: Rsync and NT's Paging File

Martin, I believe it is actually about 100 bytes per file, plus a little overhead. This was suggested earlier on this list. I verified the information with a 35 Gig mailstore sync, after doing a "find . | wc -l" to count the number of files and directories rsync was to sync. John Martin Pool

feature-request: libwrap

Hey, it was nice if rsync could be linked against "libwrap" (inside the tcp_wrappers-tool) by Wietse Venema . If run as a stand alone-daemon, not from inetd, you could deny access from certain hosts to rsync this way. A patch shouldn't be too h
