[Bug 1789012] Re: Grsync doesn't ask for password for a remote->local backup via SSH
I experience the same issue, but can provide more details than those above. Do I describe the same situation? For me, the problem is that grsync does not include all elements of what I have indicated in the advanced options tab. Specifically, quotation marks do not get passed along in the rsync command that gets executed. For me, the result is that rsync tries to use the default port 22, instead of port 7822, as stipulated in: -e "ssh -p 7822" grsync instead renders this command as -e ssh -p 7822, without quotation marks, and rsync doesn't know what to do with this. The result, is that it uses an incorrect, closed port, hence, no password request. grsync doesn't ever provide an error. It simply sits there. One can only see the issue, and an error, if you use grsync's "rsync command line" under the "File" menu, and copy that text into a terminal. When I run that, I get the error ssh: connect to host remotehost-name port 22: Connection refused rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(235) [sender=3.1.2] The command that grsync erroneously generates is, without quotation marks: rsync -r -t -v --progress --delete -z -s -e ssh -p 7822 --exclude .* /local-path/local-directory/ login@remote-server:path/directory but what I actually entered into grsync was, with quotation marks: rsync -r -t -v --progress --delete -z -s -e "ssh -p 7822" --exclude ".*" /local-path/local-directory/ login@remote-server:path/directory This is in error, on grsync's part. When run from the prompt, rsync works just fine.

Using Grsync to perform a remote to local backup works OK (grsync 1.2.6/ubuntu 18.04 LTS), just run on the local server ssh-keygen then ssh-copy-id to the remote server and grsync will complete sync not asking for the password. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789012 Title: Grsync doesn't ask for password for a remote->local backup via SSH To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grsync/+bug/1789012/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
