Re: [BackupPC-users] Windows Vista rsync

Hello,
I want to share my little experiment with Vi$ta...
Related with backup of Vista client with rsyncd, you must pay attention
of the "junction points"
(http://www.svrops.com/svrops/articles/jpoints.htm
) and
the filesystem organisation of Vista (http://mutable.net/blog/archive/2008/03/31/vistas-virtualized-folders.aspx
).
the avoid the problem of loop with the junction point and then, the
"path too long" in the name of the path,
we add exclusions (partial list,it's a exemple, it depends of the path)
in the rsyncd.conf :
------------------------------------------
auth users = backuppc
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
read _only_ = true
use chroot = false
transfer logging = false
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
log format = %h %o %f %l %b
hosts allow = 192.168.111.0/255.255.255.240
hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0
strict modes = false
[USER_2H0.002]
path = /cygdrive/c/Users/
auth users = backuppc
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
exclude from = /cygdrive/c/cygwin/etc/exclude_user.txt
------------------------------------------
and the "exclude_user.txt" file contains :
------------------------------------------
- All Users
- Default User
- All Users/Application Data
- All Users/Desktop
- All Users/Documents
- All Users/Favorites
- All Users/Start Menu
- All Users/Templates
- Default/Application Data
- Default/Cookies
- Default/Local Settings
- Default/My Documents
- Default/NetHood
- Default/PrintHood
- Default/Recent
- Default/SendTo
- Default/Start Menu
- Default/Templates
- Default/AppData/Local/Application Data
- Default/AppData/Local/History
- Default/AppData/Local/Temporary Internet Files
- Default/Documents/My Music
- Default/Documents/My Pictures
- Default/Documents/My Videos
- Public/Documents/My Music
- Public/Documents/My Pictures
- Public/Documents/My Videos
...
------------------------------------------
(this config works with backuppc 3.1.0 under Linux/CentOS 5.2 and the
standard distribution of cygwin for the Vista machine)
