Can someone please put the situation in Linux with not filtering
/var/log/lastlog (sparse file) somewhere in the docs. It comes back to
bite me every few years and I waste a bunch of time figuring out why rsync
keeps aborting. Or for that matter just hard code ignoring that file.

Every one of my systems list last log at 505GB with a vanilla ³ls² and all
are root:root.

All of my systems are 64 bit CentOS, and all have /var/log/lastlog. With
various pressure from both the private sector and government demanding
some kind of log archiving, I thought some kind of FAQ or note could save
countless man hours for people trying to use BackupPC. I wasted 2 days
going dow

Mine 'have' /var/log/lastlog. Just not the problem with TB+ apparent
sizes. Do you have a uid of -1 - or very, very large uids?

What version of CentOS are your clients?
I seem to recall this was a problem with RHEL 4, but has not been a problem
on later versions. I use rsync and do not exclude /var/log/lastlog and do
not have any problems with it.

Why not dump the SQL data live to a text file and back that up? That's what
mysqldump is for... you can back up everything you need to restore an entire
database without ever taking down the mysql server. And this makes restores
much simpler... if a developer drops an table by mistake, you don
