I'm running rsynch 2.4.6 on a RedHat 7.x machine. I'm attempting to use the following line:

rsync -avzC --timeout=600 --delete --delete-after \ rsync.php.net::phpweb /path/to/php folder

 

but I'm getting an

unknown host: rsync.php.net

 

but if I ping the site, I get

ping rsync.php.net
PING va1.php.net (198.186.203.51) from 63.163.7.66 : 56(84) bytes of data.

rsync works fine when I attempt to sync from other sites, but I've only been using it for a couple days. I'm assuming this isn't an rsync issue, and thought I would ask for any advice.

 

Thanks!
