Hello, I have been working on a project to Openssl'ify Rsync. I am having problems when Rsync forks two processes to handle a sender and was wondering if anyone else would be able to lend a hand or some pointers. I have posted to mailing.openssl.dev
Basically, I have brought up Rsync 2.5.5 on cygwin. It goes through the Openssl init and then waits on accept. When it accepts, it forks itself. The child then communicates with the other side. The problem occurs when Rsync determines that it is the receiver and forks itself again. Then there are two processes with the same SSL object. I am having a lot of trouble getting data from the client once Rsync does this two-fork thing. I know that Openssl is multi-thread capable, but this situation is where two processes have the same SSL object and attached socket and are working with it. This version works fine when Rsync is the sender, that is, the client connects and the server sends the files over. In this case, there is only one process trying to write to the SSL object and socket. I would appreciate any help or pointers from anyone. Thanks.
