Hi,
I'm trying to use the rsync method for updating/synchronizing my webserver.
The webserver (unix) is located outside our firewall. Inside we have a NT
machine with the (source)design of the webpages.
I want them pages updated every day at nighttime by a scheduled job.
I could use winsched for it I guess. It's nessesary to use sort of password
protection, so I used the option --password-file=<filename>.
Anyway, no matter what I do, it won't upload them files. (download is no
problem)
NT says that the passwordfile I use should not be world accessable.
I created therefor a specific user with no other (group) rights other than it's
own.
Still the password mechanism doesn't work.
When I type in the password when it asks for it, it accepts the phrase I type
in.
However the rights are right, it comes up with write permission errors.
I'll show you my configfiles and hope you can recognize faults in it.
Maybe you can give me some advise.
