Re: backup option

Would that not be done by omitting the --delete option? aF On 12/08/2010, at 9:52 AM, hce wrote: > Hi, > > I am using rsync to backup files. Is it possible to specify an option > not to delete files from backup directory if the files are deleted > from source? In that way, I can always keep som

backup option

Hi, I am using rsync to backup files. Is it possible to specify an option not to delete files from backup directory if the files are deleted from source? In that way, I can always keep something I may or may not need in the backup disk, but remove it from a work computer. Thank you. Kind Regards

Re: feature request: "remote user is root, make remote owner is foo"

Travis, We also use rsync to push our files. While there are several users with the ability to do the push, the files on the webserver host are set with su-gid bit set. No matter which of our web people push the files to the visible server the files all move to a consistent groupship that allows

HDB, a hard drive backup program

Hey all, I'm writing a tool: http://www.subspacefield.org/security/hdb/ It is very similar in some ways to rsync, except it's meant for backing up locally to removable HDDs, and it keeps metadata around when the HDD is removed. I figured I'd ping people here to see if they are interested in part

Scripting rsync against a filesystem with a quota

Hello, I have a couple of questions about using rsync scriptographically. I've looked around and can't find anything. I must be missing something obvious. I'm trying to write a script that will synchronise various local folders on a Mac OS X Workstation to an SMB mounted Windows (2003, mostly
