incomplete syncronisation of folders

2001-05-24 Thread Colin Nathan
Hi all, hope you can help   We are mounting a NetWare 5.x volume using NCP and then attempting to syncronise between two local folders on this particular Linux server.   Problem 1.   The syncronisation occasionally "gets stuck" on a file and stops the rest of the syncronisation process. At pre

I'm a little surprised at this. I use rsync on Win2k every day. Runs automatically at 1pm in my case, and it hasn't bombed yet. Win2k is the "sender", receiver is Linux 2.2.13-0.9. Both have rsync 2.4.6. cygwin is a little old on win2k, uname -a returns 1.1.2. Linux is running sshd version 1

All, I currently am stalled on the following error message: chroot /dir/tocopy failed I then added use chroot = false to the rsyncd.conf module options and the error message changed to: chdir /dir/tocopy failed The command I'm executing for the rsync is: [The point here is it's an anonymous

Hi All, I posted a query here (5/22/01) concerning problems with rsync on Windows 2000. I want to partially answer my own question, see if anyone has already solved this problem, and seek additional guidance in designing a fix. It appears that, when rsync on W2K is the 'sender', the rsync recei
