For the time being I've setup my Win2k server to push data to my Linux
server, and I've noticed some more troubling behavior that hopefully
will help narrow down the cause.
If I use the -vv option and there are more than 10,000 files to compare,
before it starts transferring it dies with:
Read from remote host {my.linux.server}: Connection reset by peer
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(453)
[sender=2.6.9]
On the remote (Linux) side, rsync is still running and I have to kill it
manually:
28422 ? Ss 0:00 sshd: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
28427 ? Ss 0:00 rsync --server -vvlogDtpr --partial . /remotedir/
If I have less than 10,000 files, it runs okay with -vv. I've also
noticed that this sometimes happens when using the -z option, though not
always. It does not appear to crash with -v. I wonder if it has to do
with the size of files being transferred...
I'm going to try this against another server shortly and see if the same
things happen.

I have asked a similar question last December and no reply to that one
either. <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-12/msg00675.html>
It seems that Darryl didn't have the time anymore to solve this, or he
was too much worried after the whole legal discussion that followed his
post that he decided not to do it at all. Which would be a pity, because
I have no clue how to fix it myself.
