  • Kind of lost on this.
    Post date: Monday, September 19, 2005 - 23:54

    So Ive been looking into taking a windows 2k machine and backing up my documents to a debian box over ssh. I am using putty as my ssh client and have tried many different ways to connect and get it to backup my files. Could someone possibly show me an example and what the examples mean so that I may write a proper script for this. This is what I have come up with. Ive tried this:
    @ECHO OFF
    SET SECHAW_IDENTITY="C:\Program Files\cwRsync\doc\ssh-keygen.html"
    SET SECHAW_TYPE=ssh
    SET SECHAW_LOCALPORT=9119
    SET SECHAW_SERVER=68.116.46.17
    SET SECHAW_SERVERPORT=873
    SET SECHAW_USER=SvcwRsync
    SET SECHAW_CMD="C:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin\rsync.exe" rsync -r /cygdrive/c/MyDocuments/ 68.116.46.17:/home/blackrose/Backup/
    SET SECHAW_TUNNEL=ssh -i "C:\Program Files\cwRsync\doc\ssh-keygen.html" -L 9119:127.0.0.1:873 SvcwRsync@68.116.46.17 -T -N
    "C:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin\sechaw.exe" --verbose

    Also ive tried this:

    @ cls
    @ echo off
    pause
    rem Rsync job control file
    C:\Cygwin\bin\rsync -vrtz --password-file=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents Blackrose@68.116.46.17::My Documents"/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/My Documents/"
    C:\Cygwin\bin\rsync -vrtz --password-file=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents Blackrose@68.116.46.17::My Documents "/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/administrator/My Documents/"

  • Impersonate?
    Post date: Monday, September 19, 2005 - 13:58

    Hi!
    First of all thank you very much for the terrific work with copSSH.
    I would like to redirect the users to their home directories located on a network share. Is it possible to make copSSH impersonate? I would like copSSH to authenticate itself to my file server as the currently logged in user instead of the SvcCOPSSH account.

    Also I wonder if the following message upon installation is normal:

    Granting SeDenyRemoteInteractiveLogonRight to SvcCOPSSH ... failed
    AddUserRightToAccount:

    ***Error*** AddUserRightToAccount -1073741728

  • failed verification -- update discarded
    Post date: Sunday, September 18, 2005 - 10:46

    I continue to receive "failed verification -- update discarded" errors on one particular workstation when using cwrsync (2.0.3). I have seen this error on groups regarding to large file sizes but these are small files (not much bigger than 1 MB). I have other clients synchronizing using cwrsync(2.0.3) to the same server (W2K3 Server) without a problem.
    I have ran ethereal on both server and all clients (x3) and all connections indicate checksum errors with rsync packets (even workstations that synchronize perfectly). Is this normal for Ethereal to show Checksum errors for Cwrsync traffic?

    Below is the output of the verbose log file generated by the failed client.

  • Running sftp from Windows task scheduler
    Post date: Friday, September 16, 2005 - 19:05

    I have a Dos batch file which executes sftp using the -b flag. The ftp commands are in a separate text file. This dos batch file is run from the Task Scheduler on Windows 2003.I have set the user id to be my network id which has admin rights on the server.
    When this jobs runs from the task scheduler, I am getting an ff return code.
    however, if I run the batch file manually, it executes okay.
    I am running version 1.3.2
    Any suggestions?

  • Installing CopSSH over OpenSSH for Windows?
    Post date: Thursday, September 15, 2005 - 14:50

    I currently use the OpenSSH for Windows server on my XP Pro SP2 box. I plan on upgrading to CopSSH since maintenance of the OpenSSH for Windows has stopped.
    Do I need to uninstall OpenSSH for Windows before I install the CopSSH package or can I simply install CopSSH over OpenSSH for Windows?

  • No such file or directory (2) direct rsync
    Post date: Thursday, September 15, 2005 - 05:05

    Using rsync command:rsync -rtv /home/vmail sculfs1::test
    from Debian Linux to backup courier mailboxes to Win2k3 server. The MS server is running rsync service with parameters:
    --config rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach

    Rsync stops with "No such file or directory (2)" in log on server. No errors shown at client end.

    I can't see any spaces in the file names although they are complex. Any tips to solving this problem will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Greg.

  • Permit SSH only
    Post date: Thursday, September 15, 2005 - 00:18

    Is there a way to force rsync to only permit connections over ssh? I tried closing 873 on the firewall, but that broke the script. Once the SSH connection is made over 22, how can I be sure that Rsync is running securely?

    Thanks in advance,
    Jeff Buccola

  • Output rsync log to database
    Post date: Wednesday, September 14, 2005 - 20:20

    Is there a way Rsync can output the log file to a database? Not sure if rsync can interface with an ODBC connection or if there is some way to rig it to do so.

    Any input is much appreciated.

  • --exclude-from switch not working
    Post date: Monday, September 12, 2005 - 19:35

    Hi,

    Trying to use the --exclude-from switch, but it doesn't seem to work.  I have tried the --exclude="pattern" and that does work.    Even tried changing the "C:/sbin/exclude.txt" to /cygdrive/c/sbin/exclude.txt and that didn't work either.  I'm using the same syntax as I do in unix, but on a windows box instead.

    Using cwrsync v2.6.6
    Output of first few lines:
    parse_filter_file(/cygdrive/C/sbin/TEST.txt,0,3)
    add_run(yb")  -- these are strange chars which I cannot copy into this...

    TIA,

  • Partial files cause: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(584)
    Post date: Sunday, September 11, 2005 - 06:27

    Hello,
    I use Rsync over a local network to backup files from a laptop to my main PC which is running the server as a service. It works fine unless I turn on the partial file option (--partial). This is a log of what's happening.

    opening tcp connection to 192.168.0.102 port 873
    opening connection using --server -vvtr --partial . avcopy
    building file list ...
    24 files to consider
    ShouldIWorryAbout/
    ShouldIWorryAbout/Should I Worry About... Drinking.avi
    rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes: phase "unknown" : Con

    rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104)
    rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(584)

    It definately seems to be a problem when it finds a partial of the file it is trying to copy in the destination directory. From what I have seen if you have the --partial option set, if you stop the transfer the file in the destination directory is renamed to it's proper name even though it is not complete. When the partial didn't rename properly I could start the transfer again without difficulty, otherwise I had to delete the file and start the transfer again.

    Once there partial is in the directory even if I change the command to not make use of partial files rsync still fails with the above error.

    I am not using a secure channel and I have tried it without any firewalls running but this makes no difference. I am running cwRsync 2.03 on both the computers. Only the main PC has the server installed on it.

    Thanks for any help.

  • Problems with --delete over ssh
    Post date: Friday, September 9, 2005 - 23:41

    Are there any known problems using --delete over ssh?  I've got my users backing up their windows desktops to their linux home directories - they have full permission to the directory/files yet If a file is removed from the windows clients and another rsync is attempted it is unable to remove any of the files on the server.
    delete_one: unlink filename: Permission denied
    I'm using the instructions from the forum for enabling passwordless ssh using null string keys and it authenticates and creates files just fine as the user but can't seem to delete them.

    Any thoughts?

    Win XP SP2, firewall turned off.
    I installed cwRsync from cwRsync_Server_2.0.3_Installer.zip. I changed the rsyncd.conf file to:
    use chroot = false
    strict modes = false

    log file = rsyncd.log
    pid file = rsyncd.pid

    path = /cygdrive/c/
    read only = true
    transfer logging = yes

    I started the OpenSSH and RsyncServer services. Now I want to do anything with it so I issued the command:

    rsync -vru localhost::c /cygdrive/e

    then I receive those errors:
    rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104)
    rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(584)

    In rsyncd.log I get:

  • Password prompt from rsync
    Post date: Friday, September 9, 2005 - 09:30

    I've setup a MS2003 server as an rsync server using cwRsync & am trying to rsynch files frm a Linux (debian sarge) box. ssh and rsync running on win2k3 server as services.
    rsync prompts to accept cert. then prompts for a password for root@win2kservername.

    I've tried setting up auth = root and the name of a secrets file in the rsyncd.conf file. I suspect that the service isn't using these conf files. Nothing is appearing in the log files. How do I ensure that logging is enabled and that the conf file is being used?

    I'd appreciate any tips.

    Thanks,

  • Rsync over ssh from Linux to Windows 2000 hangs
    Post date: Wednesday, September 7, 2005 - 23:58

    I have the following setup.  I have a master backup server that runs linux.  I use rsync over ssh to connect to my other linux servers and pull back all the files I want backed up.  This works great.  I would like to do the same thing with this one windows server that I have.  I have installed all of the most recent versions of cwrsyncsrv on this windows 2000 server and every time the process hangs.  I have two drives that I am trying to backup.  On drive c, it gets through and receives a list of files, but hangs after approxiamately 28,000 files.  On the d drive, it makes it through receiving the file list (53,490), but hangs after copying over 872 sub-folders.  The only exception I had to this was when I tried installing v2.01, which got further on drive c.  In that case, it received the full list (46,606), but then hung after transferring 789 sub-folders.

    The linux server I am pulling the files over to has plenty of disk space and uses the following versions:

    ssh -V
    OpenSSH_3.6.1p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090701f
    rsync --version
    rsync  version 2.5.7  protocol version 26

    I am using the ssh keys to connect without a password and using the following command (I have the OpenSSH sshd service started on the Windows Server):

    /usr/bin/rsync -avv --recursive --delete-after --update --progress --exclude="Temporary Internet Files/" --exclude="System Volume Information/" --rsh=ssh svcwrsync@servername:/cygdrive/c /backup/servername/

    I'm not sure what I'm missing, if it's a bug or a configuration error???

    Any help would be appreciated,
