Title: rsync errors
Post by: stolzy on October 22, 2012, 11:17:06 AM

For the past few years I used an LG-NAS to backup various directories from my Mac Pro using rsync. This worked perfectly fine.

Now I have a Buffalo terastation with a directory mounted at /Volumes/TeraStation-BACKUPS/PROJECTS/, but the command:

sudo rsync -a --progress --update --verbose --times /Volumes/PROJECTS/ /Volumes/TeraStation-BACKUPS/PROJECTS/

results in lots of errors of the form:

rsync: chown "/Volumes/TeraStation-BACKUPS/PROJECTS/THEA/THEA859/pr_0003.docx" failed: Operation not permitted (1)

Presumably some special permission is required to allow the permissions on the files to be changed.

sorry to dissappoint you, however there isn`t even a single solution on the web either from what I researched,

Good luck with it anyway.
