Fold the standalone rsync-web repo into the rsync source tree as rsync-web/, eliminating the sibling-checkout convention and the drift it causes between the release-time HTML snapshot in ../release/rsync-html and the source of truth in ../rsync-web. Flat-copy import (no git history merge). The standalone repo at github.com/RsyncProject/rsync-web is retained for historical reference and will be archived once the in-tree copy proves itself. Add /rsync-web/ to .gitattributes with export-ignore so the website content does not bloat the release source tarball produced by 'git archive' in packaging/release.py step_7_tarball. A follow-up commit repoints HTML_SRC in packaging/release.py at the new in-tree location.

Subject: Rsync 2.3.1 WinNT binaries and instructions available
|
|

|
|
Hello all,
|
|
|
|
I have created Windows NT binaries for rsync 2.3.1 and have decided to make
|
|
them available for others to download. These binaries have been tested on
|
|
Windows NT Server 4.0 SP5 and WILL run in daemon mode if you follow my
|
|
instructions below. I make no guarantees about these binaries, they have
|
|
however been working for me for weeks on several NT machines.
|
|
|
|
Binaries at ftp://ftp.minn.net/usr/mmchen/
|
|
|
|
Instructions for running in daemon mode:
|
|
|
|
1. You will need two files, rsync.exe and cygwin1.dll. Place rsync.exe
|
|
anywhere you like (I chose c:\program files\rsync\rsync.exe) and put
|
|
cygwin1.dll in c:\winnt\system32
|
|
|
|
2. You will need a program from the NT Server resource kit called
|
|
srvany.exe. This program allows you to run any executable as a service. If
|
|
you simply install the entire service pack it will be located in c:\ntreskit
|
|
|
|
3. Create a service for rsync by typing the following:
|
|
instsrv Rsync "C:\ntreskit\srvany.exe"
|
|
|
|
4. You should now have a new service called Rsync and you can verify by
|
|
looking in Start->Control Panel->Services DON'T START IT YET!
|
|
|
|
5. If you want to run rsync in daemon mode you will need a configuration
|
|
file. Here is the one I use, call it rsyncd.conf and place it in the same
|
|
directory as rsync (C:\Program files\rsync\rsyncd.conf)
|
|
use chroot = false
|
|
strict modes = false
|
|
hosts allow = *
|
|
|
|
[backup]
|
|
path = /
|
|
read only = yes
|
|
list = no
|
|
|
|
This example configuration will make one big anonymous anonymous rsync area
|
|
available, I use this to backup my NT machines from a central Unix machine.
|
|
This configuration might not be ideal for you, change to suit your tastes.
|
|
The first two lines are important for rsync to work on Windows NT however.
|
|
|
|
6. You are going to need to hack some keys in the registry to make it work.
|
|
Don't do this unless you are comfortable with the changes! Run regedit32 and
|
|
add the following keys and values (quotation marks ARE IMPORTANT):
|
|
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SYSTEM->CurrentControlSet->Services->Rsync
|
|
Edit->Add Key-> Key Name: Paramaters
|
|
Edit->Add Value-> Value Name: AppDirectory Value: "C:\programfiles\rsync"
|
|
Edit->Add Value-> Value Name: Application Value: "C:\programfiles\rsync\rsync.exe"
|
|
Edit->Add Value-> Value Name: AppParamters Value: --config="C:\programfiles\rsync\rsyncd.conf" --daemon
|
|
|
|
7. That's it, you should be able to start and stop the rsync service at will
|
|
using the Services Control Panel. When running with the above configuration
|
|
you should be able to test by attempting to telnet to port 873 from a remote
|
|
machine.
|
|
telnet rsync.server.com 873 (replacing rsync.server.com with your own
|
|
server's address)
|
|
You should get a connection to the rsync daemon running on your NT box.
|
|
|
|
8. If you have problems you are on your own, sorry, I have enough to do :) I
|
|
would suggest triple-checking your spelling on EVERYTHING (filenames,
|
|
configs, reg keys). If you have any comments or suggestions I would be happy
|
|
to hear them at mmchen@minn.net.
