RE: possible bug with exclude/exclude-from

I created a pretty complex exclude file recently and it took a lot of help from the forum. But, I learned that using +/- in front of each line is very helpful. The order is also very important. Try the following exclude files. [start] - phoenix/default/*/Cache/* (not sure how rsync handles dot fi

RE: rsync output -vv differs with dry-run option

Correction: The options I'm comparing are -avr and -avrn. I meant that I'm getting a different report with the -n compared to without -n. Sorry... Thanks, Dave -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2004 1

RE: rsync output -vv differs with dry-run option

I've noticed a difference between the dry-run and normal execution as well using /usr/local/bin/rsync -avrnz --exclude-from=/davet/rsync.webmstr1 --stats [EMAIL PROTECTED]::webmstr1 /export/home/webmstr. I'm not clear why, but it appears as if the dry run method, using -n, is not reporting all the

defunct process

I have a defunct process (13130) that won't respond to kill -9. It's parent (13127) appears to be an old script running rsh. I have a few questions on this. 1. Is it a potential security risk (beyond the fact that it's not a secure shell) to have an rsh process open for that long? 2. How dangerous

RE: More confusion on exclude rules (Success)

Found a space after + /nflmg/scripts/regional/misc_loaders/ which caused the subdirectory to be missed. Thanks a bunch for your example. That illustrated the issue well. Once I got rid of the space and saw that your example did work, it made it much easier to understand how the rules build. The key

RE: More confusion on exclude rules

Hope, I'm not being a pain, but... In, my config, why does [- /*] exclude [+ nflmg/scripts/regional/misc_loaders/] but not [+ bin/]? Also, the config you gave me, still ignored [+ nflmg/scripts/regional/misc_loaders/] Thanks, Dave -Original Message- From: Turner, Dave Sent: Friday,

More confusion on exclude rules

I have created two new files /export/home/bin/test_temp.delete_me and /export/home/webmstr/nflmg/scripts/regional/misc_loaders/test_temp.delete_me on the rsync server and am using the following exclude file. + bin/ + nflmg/scripts/regional/misc_loaders/ - core - *.bz2 - *.orig - *.BAK - *.bak - *

RE: exclude-from and include-from confusion

Thanks Wayne! That's doing the trick. I've been playing with combinations and am now getting what I expect. I think I'll be using something close to this for my exclude file to get what I want. + /testdir/* - /*/ Combining that with different modules will make it a much simpler task. Thanks! -

exclude-from and include-from confusion

Learning rsync (love it) and am requesting some help in understanding the exclude-from/include-from rules. I've been doing some testing and the results aren't coming out as I expected. Problem: I have a directory with several dozen sub directories and would like to selectively pick a couple dozen
