  • cwRsync missing lower case directory
    Post date: Wednesday, August 10, 2005 - 17:43

    I would rename the directory to upper-case, but it is our file server and is hit rather hard at times so I can't change the directory name (open files and what not).
    As an experiment, you could try copying one of the problematic file trees to another location and see if rsync still fails to access it. Though I'd try the other offered suggestions first.

    (This doesn't explain why none of the files in those directories were transferred, but keep in mind that if you're backing up an in use server, rsync won't be able to access any files that are locked for reading if the files are hosted on a Windows server. You can avoid this by hosting these files on a Linux/Samba server.)

    Where /cygdrive/e/ is the drive I'm backing up, and /cygdrive/z/ is a Samba mounted shared on the Windows server...

    FYI, you lose the benefit of rsync if one leg of the transaction is a network mounted drive (SMB, NFS, whatever). If performance is a concern, run an rsync server on the machine supplying the Z drive.

  • Permission problem with update option
    Post date: Wednesday, August 10, 2005 - 03:25

    Hello,
    I use a cwrsync 2.0.1 Server and Client on windows 2000.

    When I use rsync to archive a directory structure everything works fine.
    i.e. the command:

    rsync -av /sub/ tom@server.org::backup/sub

    does not generate any errors.

    However if i try to update the server with

    rsync -urv /sub/ tom@server.org::backup/sub

    I get a "permission denied" error.

  • Error after working fine
    Post date: Friday, August 5, 2005 - 00:32

    Guys
    I'm seeing a problem after the install has been working for a week

    Now i get this when i kick it off

    @ERROR: auth failed on module reading
    rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1171)

    I've tried uninstalling 2.0.1 and installing 2.0.2 but no luck

    It was running fine - windows client to Linux server I'm running it on Windows 2003 server and as i said it worked fine transferred over 18Gb now it won't do anything

    Any ideas

    Thanks

  • cwRsync 2.0.2 hangs under XP
    Post date: Thursday, August 4, 2005 - 21:07

    Sorry gents, I guess I was expecting to get an e-mail notifying me of updates to this thread..  :-)

    I'm not having any luck with the 265 zip file either.
    Regarding the second part, do you want the 265 exe file, or the original 2.0.2/3 exe file with the dll?

    Post date: Friday, July 29, 2005 - 21:07

    Would it be possible to make a rebuilt copy of the installer so that all components are selected to be installed by default? IE, the Rsync Component as well as the OpenSS Server?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Unable to run rsync over ssh under schtask (WinXP) when logged off
    Post date: Tuesday, July 26, 2005 - 15:13

    Is a XP password mandatory to run scheduled taks?

    I don't think so. You should be able to leave the field blank.

    Alternatively you could create an account for rsync (if you've installed the server version of cwRsync, it creates an account specifically for running rsync).

    Post date: Friday, July 22, 2005 - 09:14

    Hi,

    I have the latest version of copssh (earlier verison I installed on w2k box worked) installed on a w2k3 server no SP1 and have followed your proceedure in the faq on how to communicate w/o passwords, but this time it does not work.

    1. When I create the link "ln ....." it tells me the authorized_keys2 file alread exists.

    2. When I go to login as mydomain\administrator(I activated this user as domain) I get asked for the password.

    3. How do I (example pls) run sshd -D from the bash prompt on the server?

    4. Can anyone suggest how to fix it (pls list the proceedure for a dummy like me).

    Here is the output from my ssh command (remote client)

  • Rsync over SSH - Problems
    Post date: Thursday, July 21, 2005 - 06:11

    Hi!
    Could you please help me with this issue? I am a newbie to SSH as well as Rsync. I am using the latest version Cwsync 2.0.1

    The batch file was created using security wrapper wizard. It is as follows: -

    @ECHO OFF
    SET SECHAW_IDENTITY="C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\cwrsync.txt"
    SET SECHAW_TYPE=SSH
    SET SECHAW_LOCALPORT=9119
    SET SECHAW_SERVER=70.84.153.101
    SET SECHAW_SERVERPORT=873
    SET SECHAW_USER=SvcwRsync
    SET SECHAW_CMD="C:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin\rsync.exe" -av /cygdrive/c/hello rsync://SvcwRsync@localhost:9119/upload

    "C:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin\sechaw.exe" --verbose
    ____________________________________________________

    The private key file cwrsync.txt was created from the Private key on the server.

    When I run the batch file, I get the following results: -

    The operation seems to be going wrong at two points.

    1. The identity of the host can not be established. I have taken the key from the server and created the cwrsync.txt file containing the private key. What could be the possible reasons for authentication not taking place properly?

    Secondly, connection to the local host is refused. what could be the possible cause? Do I have to create an account svcwsync at the client computer and try the batch file from that account?

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Nice job with CopSSH!!I'm thoroughly impressed. I've been looking for a new openSSH implementation for w2k3 for awhile now since the older one is still at 3.8p1. I likey!

  • rsync errors over ssh - looking for a bit of help
    Post date: Monday, July 18, 2005 - 15:20

    Hey all,
    First off, I'm new to cygwin, rsync, and actually even ssh. I've used clients many times, but server side I'm a bit of a noob. Anyway, here's my problem...

    I set up a brand spankin new Windows XP box with only two apps installed: copSSH and rsync. I need to tie down all security as tight as possible. From what I've seen/read, it seems to me the only port I need open on this server is 22 (for SSH). But for the sake of testing I've also opened 873.

    I can connect directly to my rsync server (bypassing ssh) via the following command:

    rsync *.* user@host.com::module

    Works like a charm. However, when I try what I believe to be the correct SSH syntax, which is:

    rsync -av --rsh="ssh -l sshuser" *.* user@host.com::module

    I get the following error:

    user@host.com's password: (entered it incorrectly)
    rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104)
    rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(584)

    I've also tried just SSH'ing into the server and it works great. I can run rsync as well so I'm not encountering any path issues. Lastly, I've checked the rsync server log file and don't notice any entries when I try and execute the ssh-esque command above.

    Am I missing some sort of syntax? Can anyone shed some light?

    Thanks,

    Mike

  • cwRsync service w/ macos rsync client
    Post date: Monday, July 18, 2005 - 03:50

    I'm trying to use a Windows XP box as a backup server for my Mac OS X clients. The package installs okay, and the service is enabled fine with ssh and everything. However, whenever I try to:
    rsync foo SvcwRsync@192.18.2.3:/cygdrive/d/Picture\ Backup

    I get:

    SvcwRsync@192.168.2.3's password:

    and then even when I type in the password echoed out to me during installation, I get:

    Permission denied, please try again.

    Any help on using this server with a standard rsync client? I did open up port 22 in the windows firewall and it *is* connecting.

  • Error during install of cwRsyncServer 2.0.1 on XP
    Post date: Tuesday, July 12, 2005 - 02:05

    I tried to install cwRsyncServer 2.0.1 with OpenSSH, on a newly installed Windows XP Professional, logged in as Administrator.
    About 2/3 of the way through the install (by the progress bar), I
    get an error installing a file under C:\Program Files\cwRsyncServer.

    So I check the cwRsyncServer directory, and find that even as
    Administrator I cannot access the directory. The directory did
    not appear to have an owner, in Windows Explorer.

    I could make the installation complete by mucking around with taking ownership of the directory and changing ACLs, while the installation is stopped, then go back to the install and click the "Retry" button on the error (the other choices are "Ignore" and "Abort"). But I don't like doing this - I don't have confidence the install is okay.

    After this installation, I found that the OpenSSH service was not starting. It would take a long time (many minutes) to try starting the service, and still not start. I don't know if this is because of the problem with the installation, or a separate problem.

  • problem rsync between windows 2k and windows xp
    Post date: Monday, July 11, 2005 - 16:26

    Hi all:I'm trying to "replicate" 12GB from my laptop to my
    homeserver..
    The first is a XP Pro SP2 and the homeserver is Windows
    2k Pro with patches.
    After installing the server and client components I
    configure a module

    path = /cygdrive/c/"Documents and Settings/All
    Users/Documents"
    read only = no
    logging transfer = yes

    After issue the command
    rsync -rt /tmp bs-seti::stuff
    The laptop side says:
    "rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 32768 bytes:
    phase "unknown" :
    Connection reset by peer (104)
    rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104)
    rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code

    But on the log on the server says:
    no space left on device.....
    Which is wrong the free space on the homeserver is 40GB
    and the laptop 12GB...
    To get it worse... barely transfer 500MB of files...

    Can anybody tell me what's wrong or how i can help to
    fix it!
    Thanks!

  • PKA authentication
    Post date: Saturday, July 9, 2005 - 11:42

    Hi,
    i am running copSSH now on a Windows 2000 machine and it works great!

    We now use SSH primarily to do port forwarding of Windows RDP ports of the Windows machines in the same network of the SSH server, but are restricted direct-access by a firewall.

    Now comes my question:
    Can someone tell me how to setup PKA Authentication without the null-passphrase?
    (remark: i am pretty new to SSH and i am not very familiar with Unix)

    Help would be very appreciated.

    Regards,
    Peter

  • Redirect to home directory using cygdrive
    Post date: Saturday, July 2, 2005 - 02:33

    With previous installations of Cygwin I redirected SSH to alternate home directories by editing the path in the etc/passwd file.
    Specifically, I replaced

    :/home/user:/bin/bash

    with

    :/cygdrive/path_to_alternate_home:/bin/bash.

    I tested this with copSSH and it seems to work fine. Is this method not recommended for copSSH? Might it cause unforseen problems? If so, is there an alternate preferred method?

  • host-based authentication
    Post date: Friday, July 1, 2005 - 15:32

    I am trying to set up host-based authentication between 2 windows systems running copsshd version 1.32. I have followed all the things it tells you to do for host-based authentication, and I get the error:ssh-keysign: no installed: No such file or directory.

    I'm not sure if that means that it can't find ssh-keysign (ssh-keysign.exe is in /bin, and I changed permissions to 4711, and I even created a directory /libexec and copied it there as well), or it can't find something else. Any ideas would be appreciated. Here is my set up:

    On client:
    Added this to /etc/ssh_config, and restarted copsshd
    HostbasedAuthentication yes
    PreferredAuthentications hostbased,publickey,password
    EnableSSHKeysign yes

    On server:
    Changed in /etc/sshd_config:
    HostbasedAuthentication yes
    IgnoreRhosts no

    created /etc/ssh_known_hosts2 with client ssh_host_rsa_key.pub in it, created /etc/shosts.equiv with client hostname and also IP in it.

    Any ideas?

  • cwRsync server & ssh pubkey authentication
    Post date: Friday, July 1, 2005 - 15:10

    I am running into a similar situation posted in one of the other messages. I do not understand when you said use the Service account to initiate a PKA communication. Here is what I am trying to do:
    1) I have installed the latest version of cwRsysn server with ssh.
    2) I have a Linux server trying to do a rsync of the files located on the cwRsync server.
    3) If I just do rsync as:
    linux_server> rsync -av rsync://10.45.1.206:/cygdrive/c/downloads/ . , it works great.
    4) If I do rsync over ssh:
    linux server> rsync -ave ssh root@10.45.1.206:/cygdrive/c/downloads/ .
    it prompts me for a passwd. I copied the rsa public keys and put it under the /home/root/.ssh/authorized_keys2--> but does not work. It still prompts me for a password.

    5) The event viewer on the Windows box says: " Authetication refused:bad ownership or modes for file /home/root/.ssh/authorized_keys2.

    As per your recommendation, what steps do I need to take to initiate PKA communications via the Private Key provided with the install? Do I create "svcwrsync" account on my Linux server and come in via that account? All I am looking for is to automate the rsync over ssh process initiated from the Linux server.

    Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Thx.

  • Service run problems on Win XP
    Post date: Friday, July 1, 2005 - 10:48

    Hi,
    I have a really strange problem running cwRsyncServer on a Win XP Prof SP2 box.

    Everything worked perfectly with ver. 2.0.0 until I installed all latest MS upgrades yesterday.

    Since then, rsync needs multiple attempts to connect the daemon. In the daemon log on the XP machine, I see messages like

    rsync on Export from xxx (a.b.c.d)
    rsync: read error: Software caused connection abort (113)
    rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(584)

    The corresponding message in the client sibe (Linux/FC 3) is

    $ rsync -avz --timeout=10 --modify-window=1 --stats --partial-dir=./tmpdir u.v.w.z::Export /local/dir
    io timeout after 10 seconds - exiting
    rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at io.c(153)

    Sometimes the remote server refuses to connect at all

    $ rsync -avz --timeout=10 --modify-window=1 --stats --partial-dir=./tmpdir u.v.w.z::Export /local/dir
    rsync: failed to connect to u.v.w.z: Connection refused (111)
    rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(94)

    Once a connect (or the first phase of data exchange) worked, the complete backup works fine. Up´grading to version 2.0.1 did not help.

    Now the really strange thing: If I run rsync --daemon *manually* from a cmnd window, I never saw any of the errors above!

    Any idea what went wron here? HELP - the box should run in a rather critical production environment, so the "hangs" are really problematic.

    Tia, cheers,

    Albrecht.

  • Spoofed Address? - Error messages in log file
    Post date: Friday, July 1, 2005 - 02:22

    Running cwRsync server as a service on Windows 2000 Server. My rsyncd.log file is filling with the following error messages:
    127.0.0.1 is not a known address for "my_pc_name": spoofed address?

    Everything seems to work fine, it is just that my log file is getting huge after a few days (60 MB). I am running rsync through an encrypted zebedee tunnel for security reasons, therefore remote requests appear to come from 127.0.0.1 (the zebedee server).

    Anyone know how to solve this?

  • SSH password inputer script

    Hi All,
    I was looking to automate my cwrsync backups on my local Windows 2003 server from my Linux box. I found this scripting tool that allows you to send commands to the shell, thus mimicking that you are there entering the SSH password. Here it is:

  • too much traffic?
    Post date: Monday, June 27, 2005 - 16:03

    Hi
    I want to use cwrsync to synchronize files on Windows notebooks with a Windows Server. I don't like Windows but that's another story.
    Since I don't want to install anything on the server I don't want to run a rsync server. I thought it would be enough to have the rsync executable on the notebooks and use it to synchronize all data.
    This actually works quite well but it produces traffic that is not understandable for me.

    Example:

    I have a 25MB text file on the notebook. I sync with rsync using the command:

    rsync -az --no-whole-file --progress /cygdrive/c/notebook/ /cygdrive/z/servermounted

    when the file does not exist on the server the traffic produced is pretty much just 25MB.

    Now, when I change a few characters in that textfile on the notebook and synchronize again it's not just synchronizing the changes but the whole file.

    I get 50MB download traffic and 25MB upload traffic. Why does it produce so much download traffic? What exactly is it doing?

    Can someone tell me how I get it done with less traffic, is my command wrong?

    I was using the Offline Files feature of Windows XP before but that is pure crap, therefore not an option.

    Thanks

  • Displaying the size of each file transferred
    Post date: Saturday, June 25, 2005 - 07:32

    Hi,
    I have been experimenting with different logging options to try and capture the size of each individual file being transferred, without having to capture additional unwanted info.

    You can use the -vvv option, but the logging is extensive, and you end up getting a lot of other info as well.

    The --progress option works fairly well, except that when you write the log to a file, you will get multiple entries for each file as the --progress continually updates during the processing of a file.

    The -vv option has all the info on the individual files transferred, but does not include the file size.

    Is there a way that I can either:

    1. Add the size of the file being transferred to the -vv option

    OR

    2. Modify the --progress option to output 1 line per file?

    Or are there other reporting options that I could try?

    I have also tried using the --log-format switch but it didn't work very well (actually I am not sure whether I used it correctly as the documentation is fairly scarce).

    Cheers,
    Vaughan

  • deleted files
    Post date: Friday, June 24, 2005 - 12:56

    I have had no problem getting rsync to run and copy files across my network. I am now trying to get it to delete files on the target that have been deleted on the source. The command line I used is:
    rsync -- times -- perms --delete -zavPR /cygdrive/C/"Documents and Settings"/Bill/"My Documents"/* rsync@192.168.1.1::rsync/

    I have tried a few variations, but all without success. Any suggestions?
