FYI, I'm now using yesterday's CVS tree (which includes your files-from patch) in production. Thanks, it seems to work great. I am having one problem, however, that is not related to the --files-from feature. I was having the same problem with 2.5.6 and my own --source-list patch. There's one directory tree that craps out almost every time with this error: rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 174 bytes: phase "unknown": Broken pipe rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at ../io.c(622) Here's the command line I'm using: rsync -RlHptgoD --numeric-ids \ --password-file=/etc/rsync_passwd --files-from=/tmp/file.list \ --null -z -x --stats . remote_mirror::home/dbase I am using the same script for several other directory trees, and they work fine. What's special about this tree is that it contains more files (around 30,000 to update) and a handful of them are large (around 200 MB). I was previously running the same command using the -e ssh option to start up the remote rsync server, and the rsync would just hang. Now that I'm using an rsync server (started by inetd on the remote side), I get this error. Can anybody offer any guidance regarding how to debug the problem? Based on some -v output, it seems to send the filelist OK and sends one or more files before failing...
