That command can't cause the error you mentioned since there is no host specified on it. I assume you removed a "host:" from either the source or dest, right? (i.e. using a single colon.) The error you cited just means that the remote command failed immediately, so you have to figure out why. Try using --rsync-path=/usr/bin/rsync just to be certain that this isn't a PATH issue. Then, use -vv so you can see the command that is being run. Try that command manually and see if you can discern why it is failing. If you see some kind of permission or other run failure you can fix it and try again. If the remote rsync crashes, you need to figure out why (e.g. enable core dumps, get a core file, and examine it in a debugger). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
