The command " rsh 66.123.34.123 which rsync" is working fine now . I get the output /usr/local/bin/rsync. But the command: rsync -avvznrbe rsh /sourcepath 66.123.34.123:/destinationpath Still does not work. I get the same error as i used to get before. opening connection using rsh 66.123.34.123 rsync --server -vvbnlogDtprz . /destinationpath 66.123.34.123: operation timed out rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(189) -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
