I mount the windows (98,ME,NT,2000, XP, ECT!) box with samba and go BOOM! rsync that baby from localhost:/mnt/win2000 or where ever the smbfs lies... Watch out for pagefile.sys (i think!)... it's won't copy. (let me know about any other's) Now, can you think of a way to sync the win 2000 O

Restore rsync'ed win2000?

I was just wondering what it would take for me to do a full "ghost" like restore of windows 2000? I'm currently rsyncing the whole c:\ (where c:\ is the location of the OS) onto a remote server. I'm not sure what else someone might need to know in order to help me...Please :-) -Chris

Rsync, Perl and samba filesystem (smbfs)

2002-12-03 Thread Dr. Poo
My name is Chris, Hi! I've got rsync being called from a perl script that is called by cron (or for that matter, by hand) and when I 'rsync' a locally mounted samba filesystem (eg. to /mnt/smbfs), it successfully syncs the smbfs to the destination directory, but without reason hangs... and take
