Jason, this is absolutely great info on the Win32 file locking system and sounds like a very very interesting patch indeed. A quick question, though - how hard would it be to use backup semantics as a default for an additional mount for the entire filesystem, rather than trying to tack it into

Re: open files

::coughs:: Another way of phrasing that would be to say "If your OS prevents open files from being accessed normally, you need to deal with that at the OS level." And in case you were wondering, yes, Windows is a "brain-damaged" OS in that regard (and many others, but I digress). Under Window

Re: File walking issue?

Is there anything noticeably different, network-wise, about this RH box from the others? Different network card, different subnet, etc? Can your other *nix machines sync from this particular Win2K smb filesystem fine? Can the problem child *nix box sync to your other *nix boxen fine? I'm h

Re: File walking issue?

Max - what is the OS of the machine you're using to access the Win2K SMB share from? I ask because the reference implementation of Samba - ie, the ftp-alike smbclient - works just dandy under every OS I've looked at, but the kernel implementation of smbfs under FreeBSD (and possibly other BSDs

Re: Please help : Strange 'file has vanished' behaviour with rsync on windows.

What are "mypc1" and "mypc2"? Can you successfully ssh into them? Can you successfully ssh into them as user1 and user2? When you do ssh into them as user1 and/or user2, can you cd into /myshare1/dir1 and /myshare2/dir2 ? You need to be very specific about what you're actually doing and what

directly. That would work around your issue effectively. You'll want to use the path /cygdrive under Cygwin to access your mapped drivespec. Something like this: net use z: \\mypc1\myshare1 rsync -e ssh -av /cygdrive/z/dir1/* /cygdrive/z/dir2/ Hope that helps... Jim Salter Please help : St

losed by a router. This is not an issue which tends to be visible to the end-user with protocols like HTTP or FTP, but can very definitely be an issue with SSH or rsync. Test: ssh across the two servers. Do nothing for half an hour. Is the pipe still open?) Jim Salter Bryan Sauser wrote: I c

Re: rsync bug?

None of this does us any good without, at a bare minimum, the command line you're using to invoke rsync. You should also typically mention what OS is being used on either end of the equation, and any details that aren't immediately obvious about the network in between. more details using -vvv

Re: how about auth users without a password?

Wouldn't this (accomplishing security restrictions without need to enter a password, or to enter a password more than once) be a lot more easily accomplished by simply using SSH transport and public/private keys instead of using the daemon mode at all? Jim Salter > Larry Brasfield w
