It also appears that the problem is that the server end is 'going away' before the rsync has finished (perhaps due to a segfault). Here are a couple of examples of rsync command-lines for which this happens regularly. /usr/bin/rsync -rltvH --stats --delete download.fedora.redhat.com::fedora-linux-core-updates/ /pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/ /usr/bin/rsync -rltvH --stats --delete --max-delete=500 mirror.caosity.org::cAos/ /ftp/pub/caosity/ You get the idea. Obviously without access to the server logs on these machines, I can't tell what exactly happened at the precise time that the rsync failed. Any further assistance would be apprecaited.
