Their list of technologies make the rsyncable claim questionable in my 
mind, but I have not put them to the test yet.

It's fairly simple to test, really. Create a 100MB file from 
/dev/urandom, sync it, add a couple of bytes (or 17 - a nice number of 
making sure they are not doing block based encryption restarts) 
somewhere around the beginning, and resync. If the resync takes as long 
as the original (space or transit wise), then you know they do not live 
up to their claims.

Duplicity?

I'm already a commited rsyncrypto user, but I'm curious as to how
http://duplicity.nongnu.org/ compares; they claim similar abilities.

FW: Rsyncrypto in Cygwin

[Jan A. <jan...@do...>]

Hi Shachar,

Cool, this patch worked. My Rsyncrypto in Cygwin compiled and is working
correctly. Thanks for your help and support.

I remembered your remark regarding Cygwin's poor performance. And you are
right; here are some performance statistics for rsyncrypto. I did this small
performance test with a 213 MegaByte zip file. It gives a good idea about
the performance for the different Rsyncrypto versions.

CYGWIN Rsyncrypto binary
========================
Encryption: 275 seconds
Decryption: 52 seconds

Rsyncrypto 1.06 (old compiler)
==============================
Encryption: 53 seconds
Decryption: 20 seconds

Rsyncrypto 1.10 (Visual Studio)
===============================
Encryption: 50 seconds
Decryption: 20 seconds

Regards,

Jan

It seems that the criteria that autoconf applies for the "HAVE_MMAP" 
test includes a test whether mmap supports mapping to a fixed location. 
Cygwin does not support mmap to a fixed location, and therefor this test 
fails, which causes rsyncrypto to not include the appropriate test. This 
failure is meaningless, however, as rsyncrypto does not need to mmap to 
a fixed location.

I'll try to rewrite the test so it applies to cygwin as well.

Hi Shachar,

 

I tried to compile Rsyncrypto in Cygwin, but without success. In a previous

this to get it to work. Thanks for this.

I believe that if the file's date has not change, rsync can be persuaded 
to skip it, but I'm not sure as it's not yet relevant.

Also, at least for now, this mode will not encrypt the file names.

Oooh, I didn't know about the filter thing; that's really cool.

One important point to bear in mind, though: in that case, you'll
end up re-encrypting every file every time, since rsync wants the
whole file available to run the rsync algorithm with.  If you simply
keep an encrypted copy lying around, rsyncrypto can update changed
files only.

Latest versions of rsync has support for "filters". Unfortunately, 
rsyncrypto has no support, for the time being, for stdin to stdout mode, 
so it does not help you. That feature is planned for version 2.

Re: ssh, remote host support?

[Robin L. P. <rlp...@di...>]

Of course not, but if you want rsync to be able to work over all the
files, then all the files have to be there.

That is, for a single recursive rsync to actually work, it has to
have the files to look at.  The only other option is to constantly
encrypt the files in memory, trying to stay ahead of the rsync.  I'm
not sure that that would be a good idea, but regardless, I know of
no way to do it.

Re: ssh, remote host support?

[Christopher S. C. <dir...@gm...>]

True, but I'd think the 5000 individual rsync connections verses one single
recursive rsync wouldn't be very efficient. I haven't tested it, but it
'feels' wrong.

Regardless, looks like that's the way I'm headed.

Thanks again.

I'm not aware of any such thing, but it wouldn't be hard to write a

Re: ssh, remote host support?

[Christopher S. C. <dir...@gm...>]

Gotcha. I think I was reading the site with what I wanted it to do too much
in mind.

I'm really looking for something that will encrypt and transfer in the same
round, a onestep process. I don't like having to make a local encrypted copy
first. I'm ok if that means I can only sync based on modification times.

Thanks

Re: ssh, remote host support?

[Robin L. P. <rlp...@di...>]

rsyncrypto encrypts files in place in such a way that rsync can copy
them without much impact on the rsync algorithm when you re-encrypt.
It does not do any of the things rsync does; you run rsyncrypto on
your data, then run rsync on the results.

ssh, remote host support?

Setting the a host as a destination, like in rsync, doesn't seem to work. Am

1816    keys

I'm running the following command to encrypt:

rsyncrypto --delete -c -n /home/ugah/.ssh/filemap -r /home/ugah/files 
/home/ugah/filesencrypted/files /home/ugah/filesencrypted/keys 
/home/ugah/.ssh/backup.crt


Isn't is supposed to be smaller? I thought rsyncrypto also tried to 
compress files.

Greetings,

Re: what am I doing wrong?

[Frederico R. A. <dev...@gm...>]

The error was:

file open failed(=/home/ugah/.ssh/filemap): No such file or directory

I was using -n=/home/ugah/.ssh/filemap . Now I am using -n 
/home/ugah/.ssh/filemap and it's working.

I think it should ignore the '=', as it is a common mistake to include it.
I also think that the error message should be better, something like 
"could not open file map file =/home/ugah/.ssh/filemap"

Thank you very much!

Ooops, minor amendment to the previous instructions.

I suspect that something is wrong with 
/home/ugah/files/wallpapers/sara-02.jpg, but lets make sure. I'm 
attaching a patch to rsyncrypto for better error reporting of these 
errors. Here's what you have to do in order to apply it:

As root:
apt-get update (or aptitude update, or whatever you usually do. Sid 
already has version 1.10, so I know your system is out of date `-).
apt-get build-dep rsyncrypto
apt-get install devscripts

As a normal user:
cd <some directory where you can work>
apt-get source rsyncrypto
cd rsyncrypto-1.10
patch -p0 < report.patch (the file attached to this email)
dch --nmu
at this point an editor will open up. Just save the file there with no 
further changes
dpkg-buildpackage

As root again
cd <same directory as before>
dpkg -i rsyncrypto_1.10-1.1_<whatever platform>.deb

Run the program again and report what it says failed.

I ran now with -vv. The error message was, at the end of encryption:

Hi Fred,

Without the actual error message there is very little I can help you. 
Please run with -vv and post the last few lines of output here.

Also, what platform are you running this on, and what version of 
rsyncrypto are you using?

what am I doing wrong?

[Frederico R. A. <dev...@gm...>]

I'm trying to use rsyncrypto and I am getting, after all the encryption 
process, a "no such file or directory" error.

The command I'm using is:

rsyncrypto --delete -c -n=/home/ugah/.ssh/filemap -r /home/ugah/files 
/home/ugah/filesencrypted/files /home/ugah/filesencrypted/keys 
/home/ugah/.ssh/backup.crt

What am I doing wrong? All passed directories already exist.
Thank you,
-- Fred

Fixed wrong file for 1.10 download

[Shachar S. <sh...@sh...>]

Hi all,

Sourceforge changed their upload mechanism, and as a result I made a 
mistake and uploaded the MSI Windows binary installation twice, one of 
which under the name "rsyncrypto-1.10.tar.gz". If you downloaded the 
newest version up until about now, you downloaded the wrong file.

The right file is about 400KB. The wrong file is about 2.5MB.

Sorry about the confusion.

Shachar

Re: Version 1.10 is available for download

[David V. <dav...@gm...>]

This is also the main "feature" I'm looking forward to ;-)

Shachar once again, thank you very much for rsyncrypto.
