If I understand this correctly, you're looking for a way to make sure that the rsync completes successfully before moving on to the rest of your script. bash would allow you to do this with the '&&' operator (in this case rsync is command1 ):
Code:
command1 && command2
From the bash man page, "command2 is executed if, and only if, command1 returns an exit status of zero."
Hi,
I've written a shell script to take photos with my camera.
After every picture taken, the picture is transmitted to the computer via usb and then deleted on the camera.
But sometimes there's an error and the picture is not deleted and so, after a certain time, the camera chip will be... (4 Replies)

I am running a telnet script that connects to a database server and executes sql scripts. While the remote database is processing the commands within the sql scripts, my telnet script continues to send commands. Okay, that's fine. They get queued up in the remote server and executed sequentially.... (3 Replies)

All,
Is there some way to have my KSH script pause, until the word "DONE!" appears in the logfile /logs/log.txt?
Difficulty: The word "DONE!" may already be present in logs from the past. So I anticipate tail -0f may (somehow?) need to be done in the background, instead of grepping in a... (16 Replies)

rsync_selinux(8) rsync Selinux Policy documentation rsync_selinux(8)NAME
rsync_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the rsync daemon
DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the rsync server via flexible mandatory access control.
FILE_CONTEXTS
SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. Policy governs the access daemons have to these files. If
you want to share files using the rsync daemon, you must label the files and directories public_content_t. So if you created a special
directory /var/rsync, you would need to label the directory with the chcon tool.
chcon -t public_content_t /var/rsync
To make this change permanent (survive a relabel), use the semanage command to add the change to file context configuration:
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/rsync(/.*)?"
This command adds the following entry to /etc/selinux/POLICYTYPE/contexts/files/file_contexts.local:
/var/rsync(/.*)? system_u:object_r:publix_content_t:s0
Run the restorecon command to apply the changes:
restorecon -R -v /var/rsync/
SHARING FILES
If you want to share files with multiple domains (Apache, FTP, rsync, Samba), you can set a file context of public_content_t and pub-
lic_content_rw_t. These context allow any of the above domains to read the content. If you want a particular domain to write to the pub-
lic_content_rw_t domain, you must set the appropriate boolean. allow_DOMAIN_anon_write. So for rsync you would execute:
setsebool -P allow_rsync_anon_write=1
BOOLEANS
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
