This is on my laptop (the client I'm trying to connect from), a Mandrake Linux 9.1 box:[...]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] testing_rsync]$ rsync --version rsync version 2.5.5 protocol version 26
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After my message hit the list I did a double-take because I know I'm running 2.5.6 on my Mandrake 9.1 laptop... and I also noticed that the --rsh plus "::" feature didn't appear until 2.5.6.
As it turns out, I had one too many xterms open and I was trying to connect from the wrong machine (a machine which, by bad luck, was running 2.5.5).
So, foot firmly in mouth, my apologies for the wasted bandwidth.
Cheers, Derek
