Hei,
Thanks - but I couldn't make that work as expected. It seems to kill
*something*, but after that, the rsync part still continues in the
background... Here's my last test:
log='/root/log/rsync2'
timeoutseconds=1
pid=$$
(sleep $timeoutseconds;
echo `date '+%c'` " $0 INTERRUPTED" >>$log;
kill -9 $pid) &
/usr/bin/rsync -avzu --delete /root /home/palvelimet/bckserver1
echo `date '+%c'` " $0 valmis" >>$log
Then I found this, which leads me to believe it's not that simple:
http://www.cit.gu.edu.au/~anthony/info/shell/script.hints
(scroll to "Command timeout")
On that page, they recommend "a simple c solution" timeout.c, which you can
download here:
ftp.kaist.ac.kr/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/src/lib/libcurses/timeout.c
Anybody bother to comment? How is that thing used? Sorry, I don't speak c.
Regards,
Jussi
