I'm sure your system is fine. What about the rsync, though? If it's
still 2.4.6, you're not getting anywhere. Get the source from
http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.5.5.tar.gz
untargz it somewhere, and in the directory it creates, which will be named
"rsync-2.5.5", type "./configure ; make ; make install"
On a properly-configured Linux system, those three commands should all run
successfully to completion, leaving you with the rsync binary as
/usr/local/bin/rsync, and the man pages distributed among /usr/local/man.
If your existing version is in /usr/bin or something, and you want to
override it, add "--prefix=/usr" or whatever, to redirect the install.
It's that easy.
If you want to leave off the installation stuff, you can, because the
binary is fully static and relocatable.
I can't guarantee that this will solve your problems. Sometimes,
individual problems can be fixed only by the individual involved. In my
application, I finally had to write a custom app, completely abandoning
rsync, because of the limitations of the platforms I'm required to use. I
still use rsync a lot, but as just another tool, like tar, cp, rsh,
whatever.
Good luck.

Subject: Re: 'error in rsync protocol data stream' - Tim Conway
Classification:
Tim,
I reported a protocol data stream error on 9/8/2002
Deatils are in my postes at that time
rsync still fails everytime I run it.
This time I added three v's as you just suggested and rsync just hung with
two tasks in execution thus:
root 3178 0.1 0.9 1796 868 pts/1 S 09:57 0:00
/usr/bin/rsync -vvva --delete --exclude=root/snapsh
root 3179 0.0 0.6 1628 632 pts/1 S 09:57 0:00
/usr/bin/rsync -vvva --delete --exclude=root/snapsh
and the last data rsync put out was:
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_b1.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_default.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hardware.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hisax.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_icn.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_ignore.templ)
-----------then hangs---------------------
Any ideas?
Last time I was told to upgrade my hardware and OS.
I run a solid, scrupulously updated, SuSE 7.3 system on reliable P-II/400
hardware
