I am attempting to rsync data from a rsync server and set the
permissions to a different gid on the client:
my servers name is "rserver01"
my clients name is "rclient01"
here is the rysync.conf contained on rserver01:
# log file
log file = /var/adm/rsync_log
# global options for all modules
dont compress = *.gz *.tgz *.zip *.z *.rpm *.deb *.iso *.bz2 *.tbz
uid = nobody
gid = nobody
transfer logging=true
list=true
[test]
path=/var/tmp/rsync_test
comment = rsync_test
read only = true
hosts allow=rclient
gid = cdburners
on the server, ls -al of the source directory indicates that group
ownership is "visitor":
rserver01>ls -al
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 3 rwalkup visitor 512 Oct 17 13:43 .
drwxrwxrwt 6 sys sys 1536 Oct 17 13:31 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 rwalkup visitor 79 Mar 13 2001 hosts
drwxr-xr-x 3 rwalkup visitor 512 Mar 13 2001 inet
-rw-r--r-- 1 rwalkup visitor 330 Mar 21 2001 vfstab
I then execute the following syntax from the client:
rclien01> rsync -avz rserver01::test /var/tmp/rsync_test
after the copy has completed, I then execute:
rclient01> ls -al /var/tmp/rsync_test
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 3 rwalkup visitor 512 Oct 17 13:49 .
drwxrwxrwt 6 sys sys 1536 Oct 17 13:49 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 rwalkup visitor 79 Mar 13 2001 hosts
drwxr-xr-x 3 rwalkup visitor 512 Mar 13 2001 inet
-rw-r--r-- 1 rwalkup visitor 330 Mar 21 2001 vfstab
Is it not possible that the group ownerhip be changed to cdburners as
the rsyncd.conf file indicates?
cdburners exist on both client and server.
any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ron
