Rsync 2.5.6 has a problem with pathnames or filenames longer than 255. I redefined them in rsync.h, which generated errors on make pointing to the previous definitions which look fine. Any ideas on where to check next?

Here's the error I got trying to rsync:

receiving file list ... done

rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (5844537 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165)



Here's what make produced after redefining the constants:


[EMAIL PROTECTED] rsync-2.5.6]# make
gcc -I. -I. -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -W -c rsync.c -o rsync.o
In file included from rsync.c:23:
rsync.h:325: warning: `PATH_MAX' redefined
/usr/include/linux/limits.h:14: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
rsync.h:326: warning: `MAXPATHLEN' redefined
/usr/include/sys/param.h:35: warning: this is the location of the previous definition



And checking for the previous values of PATH_MAX and MAXPATHLEN I found: ***/usr/include/linux/limits.h*** #define NAME_MAX 255 /* # chars in a file name */ #define PATH_MAX 4095 /* # chars in a path name */

***/usr/include/sys/param.h***
#define MAXPATHLEN      PATH_MAX

Thanks!
