I doesn't actually seem to change content of the files. Only permissoins. But given that the docs says (or rather "said") explicitly:
"No changes are ever done to the source location."
I would expect operations on the "source" to be strictly read only - including permissions.
Is the documentation intentionally changed to not make that promise anymore?
# dsync -R -o mail_home=/users/user/maildir backup ssh -c arcfour -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -i /root/.ssh/id-rsa-dsync source-host "dsync -o mail_home=/users/user/maildir"
You should use -u user@domain parameter in both sides so it drops root privileges.
Yes... but the problem here is that the current userdb has accounts which can be activated/de-activated and de-activating an account makes the userdb act as it doesn't exist. ... which makes dsync skip it.
I realize that's a broken userdb, but the possible work-around was to not do userdb lookups with dsync.
