using rsync for remote transfers with rsh
Hi listers,
I've just started to test rsync. However, after going through the internet
documents, I still have some issues that I think you all can help me with so
as not to reinvent the wheel. Please respond to the scenario I describe
below:
I know SSH is recomended, but for now I have to work with rsh.
I have installed sudo, and have set up the /.rhosts file. I know it's not
tight security. I currently use "sudo rcp" in my remote file transfer
scripts which are executed by a user account which owns all the files in the
application directory structure.
This is how rcp is working for us:
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>rcp -r temp bbankbz:/home/bank/opbz
permission denied.
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>sudo rcp -r temp bbankbz:/home/bank/opbz
Password:
bbankbz{opbz}/home/bank/opbz>ls -l temp
total 896
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root other 446871 Dec 13 08:54 rsynctest.txt
This is how rsh is working for us:
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>rsh bbankbz
Password:
Login incorrect
login: Connection closed.
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>
I used to have user level security working, but I disabled it since my
scripts need to change permissions and ownerships with root priviledges.
So I'm only using /.rhosts with authorized machine names.
There is no user account named "opmain" on machine bbankbz , that's why we
get the "Login incorrect" error.
Trying to rsh as root as root gives:
# rsh bbankbz
Not on system console
Connection closed.
Which is OK for security reasons.
Now, I tried this rsync command to transfer the same temp directory and its
contents (as in the rsh example above) to machine bbankbz with the following
results:
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>sudo rsync -av
bbankbz:/home/bank/opbz/temp
sh: rsync: not found
unexpected EOF in read_timeout
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>which rsync
/usr/local/bin/rsync
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>rsync -av bbankbz:/home/bank/opbz/temp
permission denied.
unexpected EOF in read_timeout
bbankmain{opmain}/usr/bank/opmain>/bin/su
Password:
# rsync -av bbankbz:/home/bank/opbz/temp
rsync: not found
# /usr/local/bin/rsync -av bbankbz:/home/bank/opbz/temp
sh: rsync: not found
unexpected EOF in read_timeout
# /usr/local/bin/rsync -av bbankbz:/home/bank/opbz/temp /usr/bank/opmain
sh: rsync: not found
unexpected EOF in read_timeout
Any feedback would be appreciated!

Re: symbolic links
I'm not certain what result you want, but rsync will do your bidding. --copy-links makes it grab the file the link points to, instead of creating the link, --copy-unsafe-links does the same, including for links that point OUTSIDE of the directory tree you were looking at. --safe-links prevents the creation of these broken links you're getting, in that it pretends that links that point outside of your directory tree don't exist... they simply don't appear in the mirror. Without knowing more about your specific setup, I would guess that your broken links appear because they are absolute-path links (start with /), and you're rsyncing into a different absolute path. Example: source dir = /site, destination dir=/pub/site. symlink in /site/html named images points to /site/images. you rsync this over to /pub/site, and it looks for /site/images, which doesn't exist. If the tree needs to be portable, you should use relative links. /site/html would point to ../images, then it doesn't matter where it lives, as long as the rest of the tree comes along with it. I hope one of these scenarios solves your problem.

Rsync is not able to find it's corresponding binary on the remote side.
You can tell it with --rsync-path.

Re: using rsync for remote transfers with rsh
I then tried this:
bbankbz{opbz}/home/bank/opbz>rsync -e /usr/local/bin/rsync -av temp
bbankmain:/usr/bank/opmain
building file list ... done
and this:
bbankbz{opbz}/home/bank/opbz>rsync -e /usr/local/bin/rsync -av temp
bbankmain:/usr/bank/opmain/
building file list ... done
However, nothing gets transferred.
Does it make sense to use sudo with rsync?

No, -e is equivalent to --rsh, not --rsync-path. Use --rsync-path instead
of -e.

Re: using rsync for remote transfers with rsh
Ok here is the results:
bbankbz{opbz}/home/bank/opbz>rsync --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync -av
temp bbankmain:/usr/bank/opmain
permission denied.
unexpected EOF in read_timeout
Any ideas?

Re: using rsync for remote transfers with rsh
I thought you could only rsh as root? You -do- need a fully operational
rsh or ssh transport channel for rsync to work, and for your environment,
it looks like the only way it's working is as root. Correct me if I'm
wrong.

Re: using rsync for remote transfers with rsh
Yes, you are right, it appears to work as root only. See below:
# /usr/local/bin/rsync --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync -av temp
bbankmain:/usr
/bank/opmain
building file list ... done
temp/
temp/rsynctest.txt
temp/
wrote 447045 bytes read 36 bytes 298054.00 bytes/sec
total size is 446871 speedup is 1.00
I got it to work with sudo as follows:
bbankbz{opbz}/home/bank/opbz>
sudo /usr/local/bin/rsync --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync -av temp
bbankmain:/usr/bank/opmain
Password:
building file list ... done
temp/
temp/rsynctest.txt
temp/
wrote 447045 bytes read 36 bytes 298054.00 bytes/sec
total size is 446871 speedup is 1.00

remshd: Login incorrect. unexpected EOF in read_timeout ???
I am trying to pull a directory from a remote site. When I type in the command rsync -avz foo:dir/subdir/ /home/subdir in the csh I get the following error: remshd: Login incorrect. unexpected EOF in read_timeout Is this due to some error in the systems configurations or do I need to have ssh to run this? When I use rsync locally, it works fine from one machine to another. I am new to rsync and I would really appreciate your help. Thank you. Regards, Nancy

Using rsync 2.4.6 to "backup to spare disk" problem
Fellow RSYNC users,
I recently decided to use 'rsync' to update a backup copy of my root
partition rather than doing a 'dump', 'restore', and a massage of the
/etc/fstab file. I've tried using a variation of the "backup to a spare
disk" example on the web page with bad results. I found that using the
"L" option visually appears to work much better. But I don't feel
comfortable with the error messages that come out when using the
verbose mode. I am running RSYNC version 2.4.6 on a BSDi 4.1 system
for this example.
I've appended examples in sort of reverse order, since the backup root
partition gets clobbered.
And, I may of answered my own question by producing the examples. The
destination partition is being mounted on the source partition, which
changes the /mnt directory. Shouldn't the "x" option take care of this?
I did try mounting /dev/sd1a on /usr/mnt and things did work as I intended.
This could be disasterous for others that may of assumed the same I did.
So if you have any suggestion or that this is a new or known bug, please let
me know.

My guess is she is running rsync under a different user id.

Re: remshd: Login incorrect. unexpected EOF in read_timeout ???
When I rsh to the remote site, a login and a password is required. But when I run rsync, I do not get prompted for a password and a login. How do I run rsync from the command line with a login and a password? Thank you. berry wrote: > Is a password required?

If you can pass username and password arguments to the commandline for rsh, you can include it with -e or --rsh=COMMAND. -- Sean BerryRentals.com IT (650) 622 2641 work[EMAIL PROTECTED] (650) 281 6610 mobileMy opinions are not necessarily (650) 326 6420 home those of my employer.

How do I run rsync from the > command line with a login and a password? Unless you can find you --- or build, perhaps using some clever tricks with e.g. expect(1) --- an rsh client that can do login/password authentication from the terminal then redirect input/output to stdin, you don't. rsync expects to receive a transparent pipe to the remote end. If you set up rsh with .rhosts, it can deliver the required transport. If you set up ssh with .ssh/identity matching the remote host's authorized_keys entry, you can get the required transport. Passwords won't work. -Bennett PGP signature

How hard is it really to create a .rhosts file?
