Hi @all! I tested what happens with a file which is saved at a FAT32 partition and then this partition is converted to NTFS. So first I transfered the file with rsync from the FAT32 partition to my Linux /home folder. Then I converted the FAT32 partition to NTFS. After the convertation I transfe

Hi everybody! I don't ask this question together with my previous ones, because it is a new theme. I also wanted to backup files from a Windows client to a Linux Server. For testing I transfered a 512MB file with a bandwidth of 10Mbyte/s. So when I run the rsync command from the Linux machine

Hi everybody! Since two months I tested a lot with rsync, and found out great things. But I still have a question, maybe two. 1. Was it possible in earlier rsync versions (below version 2.7 I thing, where the ssh option was not set as default) to read out the packets rsync sent? I mean could yo

Thanks a lot guys! I tested several files with the compression option and the compress level. But the strange thing with the timestamps is still disturbing me. I deleted the cache as Sven told me with a bash file: sync echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches After creating a file of 1GB I copy it wit

Hi @all! Sorry about that many questions, but after searching and reading tons different web sites, I didn't find exactly what I am searching for. So, I know that with the -z Option rsync compresses the files with gzip, than the files are transfared and at the target machine uncompressed. I wan

Chance of equal checksum and changing blocks

2009-01-22 Thread David de Lama
Hi @all! I have two questions: - First, am I right that the chance of getting the same 32-bit rolling checksum is 1/2^16 and to get the same 128-bit MD5 Hash is 1/2^127? - Finally I want two know if it is possible to change an amount of blocks manually? e.g. I made a 100 MB file with "dd if=/

That decision obviously depends on processing power and network capacity available. A recent thread on Slashdot (http://tech.slashdot.org/tech/08/12/14/162235.shtml) mentioned this research which might give more insight: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dga/papers/dsync-usenix2008-abstract.html And btw, I

rsync and MD5

2008-12-16 Thread David de Lama
Hi all! I've got a question about rsync using the MD5 algorithm. I know that rsync makes blocks of a file and then compares the checksums of each block. If the checksum is unequal the block is tranfered. Otherwise it could be that the checksum is the same but the block is different. Therefor r
