rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c
I am using rsync to backup a machine with a large number of files, and I am getting this error. It would be helpful to know which files this is occuring with, to diagnose the problem. Is there a configuration option to rsync (that I may have missed) that will reveal this info. Alternatively, is there a source code patch that I could apply to rsync in order to find out?

setuid rsync
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I trying to create an automated backup from one machine to the other via SSH. I have setup ssh keys and so on, so everything is pretty much working. The only thing is, I am trying to perserve file ownership. I don't want to use ssh keys w/o a password (for obvious reasons), so I what I did was this: I setup a chrooted account called backup (using JAIL), and installed rsync in the chrooted directory as setuid. I changed some permissions at the directory level so only backup has access to this directory (so non-chrooted users can't access /backup/usr/local/, etc...). Now, when I run rsync from the remote server, it logins and creates all the files with ownership root instead of backup. I am using rsync 2.6.0 with the following options: rsync -a -v -e ssh -l backup --ignore-errors --delete --numeric-ids - --link-dest=/backup/yesterday/ source server:/backup/machine/today/ Anyone have any ideas why the setuid rsync is not perserving ownership? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

exclude everything and include directories
Anyone? Even a yea or nea at this point would be appreciated. Don - I'm trying to update some laptops from a large server directory for an EDA app. Most of the time I just rsync the entire directory and exclude the odd item. In this case it's the reverse where I want to exclude everything but include only the odd directory. I thought it'd be easy but can't seem to get the exclude then include options correct. It seems that when you exclude everything you then need to include file by file. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Re: remote files not being deleted
That lack of deletion is fixed in 2.6.0. You can work around the problem by either getting rid of the -R option (you don't need it in that particular command) or by specifying /. instead of / as the source of your copy. That did the trick!

Because rsync doesn't realize it is root, so it doesn't try to chown anything. Try the CVS version -- I changed it recently to use geteuid() and getegid() (when available), so it should work fine as a setuid program. Your other alternative would be to edit the 2.6.0 code to use geteuid() instead of getuid(). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Help needed with Failed to dup/close error

As the docs mention, you have to include every parent directory for every file you want to include or the recursive algorithm will never get down to the file to match it. The alternative to this complexity is to use 2.6.0 and the --files-from option (which lets you just list the files you want to send). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
