Re: rsync in cygwin as service

You should perhaps also mention that the tools you refer to are part of the Resource Kit and are not available as such in Windows. Kind regards, Bart Coninckx Network Administrator CNE, ASE * Sita ICT Services Lilsedijk 19 B-2340 Beerse Belgium e-mail

Re: Securing Rsync

I seem to remember that one of the links in "resources" at www.rsync.org pointed to a page that talked about running rsync on a Win32. This page warned for the use of passwords. But if it works, it works, right? Kind regards, Bart Coninckx Network Administrato

Re: Securing Rsync

It's my understanding that passwords don't work in a cygwinned rsync. You might consider limiting the modules to a certain trusted IP-address . Kind regards, Bart Coninckx Network Administrator CNE, ASE * Sita ICT Services Lilsedijk 19 B-2340 Beer

We experience that as well. We use (sadly) Rsycn in Win32 environment. I hear it's due to the Cygwin utilities. Rgds, Bart Coninckx Network Administrator CNE, ASE * Sita ICT Services Lilsedijk 19 B-2340 Beerse Belgium e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +

"hosts allow" in NT: no DNS-name?

Hi all, when using DNS names in the "hosts allow" entry of rscyncd.conf of a Cygwin Rsync, this does not seem to work, access not allowed. Filling in the corresponding IP address does work however. Anyone experienced this before? Thanks, Bart Coninckx Network Administrato

Re: Problems with rsync on Unix->Non-Unix Kernel Transfers...

I'm not a programmer, nor is my boss willing to finance this :-) But we use rsync for the time being exclusively on Windows as a means to back up our entire WAN. If our expertise can be of any assistance, we'll be most happy to help. Rgds, Bart Coninckx Network Administrato

Re: important caveat with Rsync on NT and dayligt savings time

If I understand the manpages correctly, if you use -t, the criterium for syncing files is the difference in timestamp, not in size. There are plenty of situations where the size of a file stays identical, while it's contents has changed. If you omit -t, all files are synced. Rgds,

important caveat with Rsync on NT and dayligt savings time

syncs have been busy for the last 2 days trying to catch up and hence we don't have a backup for the moment. Microsoft calls it a "feature", I call it poor programming. You've been warned. Bart Coninckx Network Administrator CNE, ASE

Re: Win32 Version?

We use Rsync on NT very intensively. In fact, right now I backup about 25 servers across WAN-links with the lates version of Rsync. You can compile it yourself to a Win32 binary by using the incredible Cygwin utilities (www.cygwin.com). Rgds, Bart Coninckx Network Administrator CNE, ASE

Re: Howto to control rsync through cron

How about scheduling a script with some logic built in it that firsts checks if a previous Rsync still is running. If so, it backs off, if not it starts the sync. Rgds, Bart Coninckx Network Administrator CNE, ASE * Watco ICT Services Lilsedijk 19 B-2340

Re: synchronizing part of a file

I think you'd best use a script to first split the two files, symc the truncated parts with rsync and merge them again afterwards. Rgds, Bart

RE: logging on client side on NT

Re: Image (clone) of hard drive using rsync

The only way to go about this, is to make a local imagefile first and transfer this later in Windows environment with rsync. Rgds, Bart Coninckx Network Administrator CNE, ASE * Watco ICT Services Lilsedijk 19 B-2340 Beerse e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel
