-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- ok.. this is a _really_ wierd problem.. I'm running a NetBSD 1.4 web server, and I am trying to setup an rsyncd server on it so i can mirror off the data to our shiny new penguin computing box. but whenever I try and start the rsync session from the linux box, i get this message on the NetBSD server. Jul 18 15:17:49 silver rsyncd[13318]: rsync on blah/ from systems@(host) Jul 18 15:17:49 silver rsyncd[13318]: transfer interrupted (code 3) at main.c(263) and on the client end I get this: $ rsync -azrvl --progress --password-file=/root/pass --progress systems at silver::blah/ /web receiving file list ... push_dir rsyncd: No such file or directory (3) unexpected EOF in read_timeout here's what my rsyncd.conf looks like: [blah] path = /web auth users = systems secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets I have no idea what the heck is causing this.. I tried setting up a similar rsync server on the linux box.. and I got the same messages when I try and sync from the netbsd server.. but when I run the same exact command on another linux box.. it works fine.. ARG!
