rsync uses TCP over port 873 if you run it in server mode. I have successfully used it this way through a gauntlet firewall after setting up an outgoing plug proxy for this port. I've just tried it successfully with ZoneAlarm (free) version 2.6.357 - though I did have to click allow on several zonealarm popup boxes before it would start properly. For this test I was using it in non-server mode, where you specify the remote rsync executable location using the -rsync-path= option, and use rsh access. > error with an older version (rsync-2.4.6-3): > receiving file list ... done > read error: Connection reset by peer > read error: Connection reset by peer > > with a newer version (2.5.4-1): > receiving file list ... done > rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer > rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(162) > rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer > rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(162) > > and with latest (2.5.5-1): -- Cliff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
