I give up. The msleep(100) consistently causes hangs of the unsafe-links test on my friend's cygwin Windows 2000 machine. I suspect it's also the reason why the build.samba.org cygwin machine hasn't reported a result in the last 9 hours. I'm taking it back out and washing my hands of the cygwin rsync port, I'm fed up. - Dave -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
