Hy there,
My name is Alex Vladulescu, and i found this very
interesting tool for backup files and folders over remote network
servers.
For the past four days i have been reading the FAQ on the site,
google-ing the web for some answers on my local problem, but i am very
stuck, nothing seems to answer my question so far.
My issue consists on
having a rsyncd.conf on a master server on which i use regular cron jobs to
update slaves with directory path and content, and all of this work well
but except the symlinks.
This is the rsyncd.conf on the master :
uid =
root
gid = root
use chroot = yes
max verbosity = 1
lock file = 1
read only
= false
write only = false
list = true
port = 873
address = 10.99.1.1
max
connections = 0
munge symlinks = false
log file =
/etc/scripts/rsync/rsync.log
hosts allow = 10.99.1.0/30
ignore errors =
false
ignore nonreadable = false
transfer logging = yes
timeout =
600
[home]
path = /home/
[mail]
path = /etc/virtual/
... and on the
slave the rsync command looks like :
rsync -vrulpHEtzhi4ogk -L
--copy-links rsync://root@10.99.1.1::/home /home/
and the symlink message
:
root at ph:/# rsync -vrulpHEtzhi4ogk -L --copy-links --del
rsync://root@10.99.1.1::/home /home/
receiving incremental file
list
symlink has no referent: "/webmaster/domains/csteam.ro" (in
home)
sent 338 bytes received 94.71K bytes 63.36K bytes/sec
total size is
5.54M speedup is 58.32
rsync error: some files could not be transferred
(code 23) at main.c(1524) [generator=3.0.3]
Ok, so far the googlein' got
me this : http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2009-July/023532.html but it
does't helps me, because the issue was that he didn't use in the config
"use chroot = yes", which is not my case as you can see, and i have been
trying all kind of params on the slaves command like : --links
--copy-unsafe-links, given the perm options.. ?i have no clue.
Please
enlight me. Tnks in advance.
Best regardes,
Vladulescu Alexandru
