Hi

I have 2 questions.

1. Is is possible to have a custom domain name associated with my NITRC site: http://connectir.projects.nitrc.org?

2. I would like to rsync my html site to nitrc but whenever I execute the following command on my computer: "rsync -avz --delete _site/ czarrar@www.nitrc.org:/home/groups/connectir/htdocs" I get the following error below:

protocol version mismatch -- is your shell clean?
(see the rsync man page for an explanation)
rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-40/rsync/compat.c(61) [sender=2.6.9]

Any ideas? I tried to google various solutions but none of them worked.

Thanks
Zarrar

I have configured NITRC to handle requests to http://www.connectir.org from /home/groups/connectir/htdocs; if you point http://www.connectir.org to 132.239.16.23, this should now work for you.

That's awesome. The rsync works perfectly.

Looking forward to the custom domain name working.

Thanks!

Behind the scenes is a tech team that's more clever than me and managed to get rsync working (thanks, Butch!).

We're working on the custom domain name; I'm marking this item a feature request.

Sorry I meant if I could associate a custom domain name like http://www.connectir.org to my NITRC site connectir.projects.nitrc.org.

Thanks!

It appears that you found how to create connectir.projects.nitrc.org; for reference the documentation is here:

http://www.nitrc.org/plugins/mwiki/index...

rsync requires ssh access to the remote machine; since the accounts on NITRC's host are restricted and don't allow ssh access, rsync won't work. You can sftp to NITRC (though your client might not allow analogues to rsync's -a and --delete).
