I have been trying to get rsync running correctly on cygwin for the past couple of days. I found a post on the cygwin list that said there was a bug in cygwin when using socketpair() but when I compiled the sample code: (http://jrepp.com/rsync/socketpair.c) both ways it works fine. Here's the article for reference: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-08/msg00357.html
I am running the latest update from cvs Here's what happens when I try to get a module list from the cgywin system from a freebsd4.4 system: http://jrepp.com/rsync/packetlog.txt fisher "Fisher Replicated Directory" rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(151) read_timeout is calling die_from_error with errno == 104 when going from cygwin to cygwin (uname: CYGWIN_NT-5.0 IGXDEV21 1.3.3(0.46/3/2) 2001-09-12 23:54 i686 unknown) I get just: rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(151) I have tried compiling with and without -DSOCKET_PAIR with the same results. On a side note here is a simple patch to help when running rsync as a service, this patch doesn't fix or cause the error (the error exists before this patch) Index: socket.c =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/rsync/socket.c,v retrieving revision 1.36 diff -r1.36 socket.c 443a444,452 > #ifndef __CYGWIN__ > /* jrepp: This causes problems when using rsync > under srvany.exe as a service, srvany loses > track of rsync.exe because it kills it's original > process.
