Hi,
I have only just subscribe to the list.  ( only to send this bug report )

Running rsync version 2.5.6 protocol version 26 ( on Solaris 8 sparc ) on both hosts.

I have 1 file I wish to sync to a remote machine
the md5 checksum is

host1: MD5 (030722.mj) = 020397fde83c2e20464b6642c018ce6e
host2: MD5 (030722.mj) = 35fcffc896c65c8ec861385b4edb81ac



What is ls -l on them? If that is the same it won't do squat.

Yes they are exactly the same.
timestamp, filesize.

ok This is the problem then.
Thanks



If I make a copy of the file on host1 to /tmp



did you use "cp -p" or did you allow the copy to have a different modtime?

Could of swore I did, but the evidence proves otherwise.
different mod time on the copied files..... 8(



I'll bet the copy had differing timestamps.

yes they do.

I read everything about the algorithm and how rsync works
missed the initial ls -l check part.


Thanks for your help Peter
