Hi

i got two server webserver1 and webserver2 i want to rsync some data form webserver1 to webserver2 using a user called syncuser

( syncuser is added to the group apache : adduser -G apache syncuser )

here is my command :

[root@web1 projects]# rsync -avzh /var/www/projects/beta-website1 syncuser@web2server:/var/www/projects syncuser@web2server password: building file list ... done beta-website1 rsync: failed to set times on "/var/www/projects/beta-website1": Operation not permitted (1) beta-website1/index.html rsync: mkstemp "/var/www/projects/beta-website1/.index.html.ZW9de8" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: failed to set times on "/var/www/projects/beta-website1": Operation not permitted (1)

sent 219 bytes received 54 bytes 60.67 bytes/sec total size is 57 speedup is 0.21 rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(892) [sender=2.6.8]

on webserver2 my permission are as follows ( i dont not want to change the permissions, i want user and group to be apache )

[root@web6 projects]# ll total 20 drwxr-xr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Feb 7 15:54 beta-website1

The first issue is that the Group has only r-x permissions ... which means the group has no write permissions. If you give the group write permissions (775 not 755) that might solve the problem.

Can some one help me understand how to sync thses files .
