Aiee! [ ... ] Hey Scott, I'm Mike Rubel (author of that snapshot system page)--I haven't heard about this cygwin issue before, but this would definitely be worth adding to the FAQ. I'm sorry to hear you're having so much trouble with it! You're actually the second person to mention windows issues; the other fellow was using a SAMBA mount and rsyncing locally on the server. The problem there was files mysteriously getting copied when they hadn't changed, or deleted when they weren't supposed to be. I asked the list if anyone else had seen that behavior, but no one responded, so I'm not sure what to think. I'll add it to the FAQ, anyway, and maybe the BUGS section. Please let me know if you find any additional information. I'm on the rsync list but not the cygwin list (yet). I've had no trouble with this at home with my roommate's Win2K PC, but between this case and the previous one, it sounds like the rsync/windows interaction may still have some rough edges, which is not really acceptable for a backup solution. :( Thanks, Mike ps> I'm moving the site to a new server tonight; I tested it manually and it appears to be in order, but DNS probably won't catch up until tomorrow morning.

Well, surprise, this bugged me enough that I had to track it down. The order of acceptance of input and echoing of input seemed to have been changed by Steve's recent patches, so I put it back the way it was before. In case anyone is curious (hah!) this code is in fhandler_termios.cc in the 'line_edit' routine that Steve has been hacking on heavily. Sigh. 1:30 AM.

rsync windows -> unix still hanging :(
I spent about 12 hours today writing a nice backup system based on Mike Rubel's snapshot system; but much to my dismay, when I took it for a test drive, I found that rsync hung on the first large directory I tried to back up. Aiee! A few web searches later, I realized that a lot of folks have seen this problem. I saw one proposed fix... http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg01155.html This fix is in rsync 2.5.5-2, but rsync still hangs for me. I'm able to sync a smaller directory but this larger one fails consistently. My symptoms are much like the ones reported by other folks; if I run a command like this... rsync -vvv -a --delete --delete-excluded -e ssh othermachine:/c/gse/ t ...the last thing I see is recv_generator(vst/sync/weird/ww 2.6 presets.txt,4866) generate_files phase=1 There are 4867 files in the folder I'm trying to back up, for what that's worth. I've cruised the code briefly but I don't see anything obvious; then again, I barely know how the guts of rsync work as far as forking processes and whatnot. So I don't even know if the -vvv output is all coming from one process. Help! Am I the only one still seeing this hang? -- scott evans :: www.antisleep.com -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

rsync problem
hi, i have a problem with rsync. it copies the same the files again and agin and i run rsync -rv dir1/ dir2/ but when i run rsync again it copies some files that have not been changed and if i run rsync the third, forth, etc. time, it copied the same files again. is there anything wrong with the get/set-function for the file-time? i guess rsync uses the file time. if i use the -c (checksum) option, rsync works OK, but that is just a work-around so far. i can reproduce this as follows: $ mkdir dir1 dir2 $ echo >dir1/test $ rsync -rv dir1/ dir2/ building file list ... done test wrote 88 bytes read 36 bytes 248.00 bytes/sec total size is 2 speedup is 0.02 $ rsync -rv dir1/ dir2/ building file list ... done test wrote 88 bytes read 36 bytes 248.00 bytes/sec total size is 2 speedup is 0.02 -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated Package: Whois 4.6.1
The most recent version of GNU Whois (4.6.1) has been uploaded to sourceware. The whois client allows you to query a whois db (RFC-812). Using whois you can get information on a domain name (whois redhat.com), IP addresses (whois 1.2.3.4), and more. This tool is commonly used to determine the owner of a domain or block of addresses, as well as get their contact information. For fun see what happens when you ask for microsoft.com (whois microsoft.com). CHANGES This version includes a few bug fixes for IPv6 handling. It also adds or updates information on many TLD servers. SOURCE == The latest stable version of GNU Whois can be found at: http://www.gnu.org/directory/whois.html The latest non-stable version can be found at: http://www.linux.it/~md/software/ INSTALLATION To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. To select the whois package click on the "Net" category and click on the "skip" field until 4.6.1-1 is displayed. Note that downloads aren't allowed from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Germany, ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is usually pretty good. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. The setup.exe program will figure out what needs to be updated on your system and will install newer packages automatically. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I would appreciate it if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general.

Burning cygwin distribution CDs
Hello, I want to burn CDs with full cygwin distribution with sources and so on. I've downloaded everything from ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/sources.redhat/cygwin/release, but it takes almost 1 GB. How should I burn it into 2 CDs so that setup.exe still works correctly? What directory layout should I use?
