sickboy 13 Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) Awesome, missed that one. I guess uploading with rSync is the easiest thing to do though. Does it support rSync over SSH (without password login but with a SSH key)?Absolutely.It supports openssh keys through openssh and additionally for windows putty keys through plink. The openssh implementation currently is most stable and seems to perform better. Before using it you'll have to accept the server SSH host key; http://six.dev-heaven.net/wagn/Six_Updater+CustomRepos_Setup+openSSH You can specify the privatekey to be used by creating a config.yml in the following folder: On windows: C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\six-rsync On linux: ~/six-rsync With the following content: --- :key: C:/path/to/id_rsa (or .ppk in case of putty key) You can find the Upload preset functionality on the RepoBuilder tab, available after enabling Advanced mode (click the button labeled Advanced). Use the following url format at the "Remote Folder" field: username@hostname:/path/to/arma and hit Push Preset. Edited May 19, 2011 by Sickboy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marceldev89 89 Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) Nice, I'll give this a try with the next ACE update! One more question, I see that Six Updater is open source, I don't know if you can compile ruby on rails or not, but do you also accept patches from other people? Edited May 19, 2011 by Pvt. Lucky question Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sickboy 13 Posted May 20, 2011 (edited) One more question, I see that Six Updater is open source, I don't know if you can compile ruby on rails or not, but do you also accept patches from other people?Thanks for the interest and offer!Currently the license does not allow derivative works - alter, transform or build upon the work, without express permission. But I will gladly give contributors permissions for patches. Forking and making a pull request on github.com would be the preferred method: https://github.com/sickboy/six-updater-gui In case of long term contribution, we can work out access to the official repo etc. The GUI repo contains all the projects for SU 2.x on windows, but im planning to refactor the code to be OS agnostic (or at least Windows/linux).

sickboy 13 Posted May 23, 2011 Solved an annoying bug that would make the confirmation messageboxes sometimes not appear properly, making it seem as if the updater has frozen, while it is actually waiting for User input. http://dev-heaven.net/issues/19971 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marceldev89 89 Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) Hi Sickboy, I've tried to get the rsync over ssh working through SU but haven't had much luck. For some reason it doesn't read the public key file. in AppData\Roaming\six-zsync\config.yml I've tried: --- :key: C:/key --- :key: C:\key :key: C:/key :key: C:\key You did say that the config.yml file should be in AppData\Roaming\six-rsync, but that directory isn't accessed by SU so I placed it in AppData\Roaming\six-zsync where it does look for the config.yml and successfully reads it. Of course, the public key is in C:\key and I've accepted the host key using the tools\bin\ssh.exe. I've monitored access to the C:\key file but it hasn't been accessed by anything SU related. My remote folder is: <user>@<hostname>:/opt/arma2oa/ Output in the console log thingy: 17:44:11: Please confirm: Are you sure you want to push preset to server? 17:44:12: Processing @CBA_OA 17:44:12: Processing @CBA_A2 17:44:12: Processing @CBA 17:44:12: Uploading @CBA to <user>@<hostname>:/opt/arma2oa/@cba Permission denied (publickey). rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at /home/lapo/package/rsync-3.0.8-1/src/rsync-3.0.8/io.c(601) [sender=3.0.8] 17:44:13: RuntimeError zSync error 12 while processing rsync_push: --times -O --no-whole-file -r --delete --partial --progress -h --timeout=30 --exclude .rsync "/cygdrive/c/games/steam/steamapps/common/arma 2 operation arrowhead/@CBA/." "<user>@<hostname>:/opt/arma2oa/@cba" . See log for details. Please report the issue to SU Support (incl your logfiles). I also monitored the /var/log/auth.log file on the server but nothing happens. Help? :D EDIT: I've placed the key file in SIX Projects\Six Updater\tools\home\Marcel\.ssh as id_rsa.pub (public), that still didn't work then I added the private key as id_rsa and it's uploading now! Weird though, I always thought the public key was sent instead of the private key when using ssh... Edited May 23, 2011 by Pvt. Lucky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sickboy 13 Posted May 23, 2011 Heya, nope. The SSH server must know your public key, while your client must have the private key, which it uses to authenticate to the SSH server to match that public key. Sorry about the six-rsync vs six-zsync mix up :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sickboy 13 Posted May 27, 2011 (edited) Hi,I have had a look in the docs and the FAQ and can't see any hints as to how to setup SixUpdater to run the BIS beta builds of Arma. Can I use six to run a beta build of Arma without screwing up my normal profiles? If so, how? I have just about got my Six profiles perfect and I don't want to mess them up! Just tick the Beta checkbox above at Overrides, or enable Advanced Mode and in the Game Profiles datagrid, enable it at the game profile of your choice.Alternatively you can just add the beta (A2) or expansion/beta (OA) Mod to your presets, it's in the Mods datagrid at the end. ---------- Post added at 15:48 ---------- Previous post was at 15:43 ---------- Hi,i just want to say Thank You for the great support yesterday in the Skype Support Chat!

sickboy 13 Posted May 27, 2011 http://www.wuala.com/ ? Thanks, but 1 GB free space is too less for an official mirror (23+ gb), and probably also for most CustomRepos, also this seems to be a private backup-space, often not very useful for public distribution of files. I have added preliminary support for DropBox a while ago, but their public service doesn't support differential transfers either so all these free hosting sites are nice but not too useful for SU purpose :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leopotam 10 Posted May 27, 2011 Thanks, but 1 GB free space is too less You can share space on you hdd-s and public cloud space will be raised on your shared space.
