More specifically, I'm trying to zip the important files in my root directory not including my home directory (which includes my documents which I backup separately/more frequently) to an external hard drive attached via USB (called 'My Book').Since File Roller didn't give me quite the level of control I was looking for, I created a script that I could execute to backup and archive regularly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to do a sync of the root home directory to a folder call backup and excluding some files.
This is wat i executed:
rsync -a /root/ --exclude-from '/root/rules.txt' /root/backup/
My rules.txt is as below:
- anaconda-ks.cfg
Somehow it doesnt read the rules.txt and it will always include the anaconda-ks.cfg file.
I don't know why --exclude doesn't work when I use tar command. Please see this code
Code:
mahmood@pc:~$ l a/
1.txt 2.txt 3.txt b/
mahmood@pc:~$ tar cvjf compressed.tar.bz2 --exclude=/home/mahmood/a/b/ a/
a/
a/2.txt
a/1.txt
a/3.txt
a/b/

As you can see although I excluded b/ but tar command ignored that.
I tried to run one grep that excludes symlinks and pipe it into a second that searches for my pattern but I continue to get the recursive directory loop error. As a result (I think) my grep is incomplete as the search just loops between directories symlinked together.

I can do it for just one directory with exclude= directory.I can also do it for multiple directories by typing that code again and again.As you can see im trying to call this variable that has endless amounts of directories in it seperated by a space.. but when run it doesnt work! It will however work if i just put one directory in the variable. Any ideas?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to compare 2 files using diff. The problem I've encountered is that I need to exclude certain lines that contain certain phrases. I know that diff supports the -I switch but no matter how I try to form the regexp it doesn't seem to work the way I expect it to. If anyone has used the -I switch before could you please post some examples of how it is used.
diff -I "[skipthisline]" file1 file2 > output.diff
I need to exclude lines that contain the string "[skipthisline]" but I have no idea what syntax is used after the -I switch. Is is supposed to be included in quotes or slashes /[skipthisline]/ or entered without either? I need to include a backslash before each bracket so that it's not interpreted as a set of characters like [a-z] but is instead interpreted as a string. Do I need to use 2 backslashes? "\[skipthisline\]"
Is it sufficient to simply type the string I want to match or do I need to match the entire line in order to exclude it from the output?
.*[skipthisline].*
or
^.*[skipthisline].*$

ZIP v2.32
I wish to exclude some files from a zip archive. On other OSes to exclude an entire directory I would use the "-x" option like so:
Code:
zip -r archive-name * -x dir1/* Simple. And just add "-x"'s as needed (or use an exclusion file).
Not how it works here, it would seem. AFAICT all "-x" options are ignored. (The entries in an exclusion file also.) For instance, "-x diy/mplayer/*" should ignore everything in the <diy/mplayer> directory. It does not. I have tried fully qualified paths as well; no joy.
What is different about ZIP on linux?
Im trying to make backups using tar, and incremental backups using --newer. The scripts are:
Code:
tar -czvf $DISKPATH/backupRepos.tgz /home/repos/ --exclude /home/repos/Temp
for general backup (on saturdays)
and
Code:
tar -czvf --newer="`date -r $DISKPATH/backupRepos.tgz +%F`" $DISKPATH/backupRepos-inc.tgz /home/repos/ --exclude /home/repos/Temp/ for incremental the rest of the week.
The problem is that the first script runs OK, excluding /home/repos/Temp from the backup, but on the second, it makes incremental OK, but doesnt exclude Temp folder. Anybody knows how can i fix this script to continue making incremental but excluding also?
I was thinking of migrating my apt-mirror repository to the recommended ftp scrips: [URL] .....
I pre populated my pool with already downloaded files, and setup the scripts.
However, if I run the bin/ftpsync, and monitor rsync with lsof -p, I can see that it is still downloading files from oldstable (wheezy) despite exclude options.
I'm guessing it's a configuration error, but I can't seem to figure it out. Any thoughts? My etc/ftpsync.conf is as follows:
Code: Select allMIRRORNAME=`hostname -f`
TO="/server_storage/srv/mirrors/debian"
RSYNC_PATH="debian"
RSYNC_HOST=ftp.us.debian.org
LOGDIR="${BASEDIR}/log"
[Code] ....
Actually, I don't think it works like I thought it did. A few guides I found listed the exclude options, but the sample config file has this:
Code: Select all## If you do want to exclude files from the mirror run, put --exclude statements here.
## See rsync(1) for the exact syntax, these are passed to rsync as written here.
## DO NOT TRY TO EXCLUDE ARCHITECTURES OR SUITES WITH THIS, IT WILL NOT WORK!
#EXCLUDE=""
So it looks like it doesn't exclude the suites at all.
I'd like to backup my whole system to a 2nd disk using rsync (other tools not possible).Which paths should I exclude from the packup?I was thinking about /proc, /dev, the lost+found directories...What other paths am I forgetting?

View 2 Replies View RelatedOn my Fedora 11 x86_64 computer I have installed OOo 3.1.1 from www.openoffice.org because I need features that Fedora disabled in the repository version.And the latter also shows up in Software Update. Now, I went around and around with this and I know that installing the 1.3.1.1 package will break my OOo. I don't want Software Update even to list the 1.3.1.1 package because sooner or later I will slip up and install it on accident.
Side note: Why does Software Update think 1.3.1.1 is newer than 1.5.1? If it really is newer, someone at OOo needs to learn arithmetic.I think I can add an exclude line to /etc/yum.conf. But I can't figure out the syntax, and I don't know which package to exclude - the one I don't want updated or the alleged update package? Both? Or just the first part "openoffice.org-ure"?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWell i downloaded a program with many .deb files ( At least 15 ) so i wanna execute them all trough the terminal so i typed

Readme.deb: command not found
As you can see all files in the folder are .deb packages, but one: The Readme file, wich is a text file.
I know I just have to move the file to somewhere else, and everything should work, but i wanna know if there's a command for excluding a file or something.
P.D. I totally trust the program, so don't worry about so many .deb files.
