--bg08WKrSYDhXBjb5 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable hi all i'm trying to do a 'push' rsync operation to mirror the contents of my webs= ites root directory on one machine over to a remote machine. rsync is inst= alled on both machines. the command i'm using to rsync is rsync -e ssh -avz --exclude "/phpSysInfo" --exclude "/webalizer" --exclude = "/phpMyAdmin" --delete --stats /usr/local/www/data-dist/ remote.machine.com= =3D:/usr/local/www/data-dist/=20 this works, for the most part. the majority of files on the remote director= y are sync'ed correctly after the operation. the problem is - this website= s root directory is owned by one user - webuser, who is a member of group -= webuser. various subdirectories inside of the websites root folder are ow= ned by other users, who are also members of the 'webuser' group. the files= /folders in the websites root direcotry are chmod'ed 775. this causes problems with the rsync operation, as i'm rsync'ing as webuser:= webuser. i get errors during the rsync process such as failed to set permissions on studentwork/winter03old/war/images : Operation= not permitted again, the majority of files sync correctly. but can anyone recommend a go= od way around this? i'm not able at this point to limit the websites root = directory to only one user account... thanks redmond --=20 FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p10 FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p10 #0: Fri Oct 3 21:30:51 CDT = 2003 8:30AM up 22:46, 1 user, load averages: 1.69, 1.61, 1.47 =20 Ever notice that even the busiest people are never too busy to tell you just how busy they are. =20 --bg08WKrSYDhXBjb5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/gXTq7g+NJl/fSB0RAv26AJ9II5EJyoMgIflxXMdlvDIGUvlFtgCgnb9w DOrSI8UtSMMfODo94QRLIOM= =6iQT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --bg08WKrSYDhXBjb5--
