Hi all,
I am doing copies between linux and windows machines using scp.
As soon as a file is being copied (and all the time the copy lasts) on
the target machine, it is readable, deletable without any sharing violation.
How to prevent this behaviour?
Idealy I would like to have the file currently copied locked until the
copy is complete.
Locking is a software feature. It is an honour system. If someone really
wants to they can alter a locked file ( just ignore the lock)
However, rsync copies the file to a temporary file first
bugsbunny.Cfj89Kd
until it is copied over and then moves it to the correct location.
Still not perfect, but better.
