Hey, that's pretty funny. Actually, I would much prefer a Linux environment, but I don't always get what I want. We are primarily a Windows and HP-UX shop, so it's not so easy get the powers that be to buy into a Linux box. In addition, I'm using several sets of in-house libraries for this project that have not been built on Linux. I could easily burn another couple of months setting up build environments and testing the Linux builds. Not going to happen at this point.
Our low-end server environment is W2K3, so that's what I'm stuck with. -------Original Message------- > From: Chuck Wolber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: rsync 2.6.2 hang (was rsync 2.6.2 crash) > Sent: 28 Sep 2004 21:13:47 > > On Tue, 28 Sep 2004, jim wrote: > > > OK, I set up a new PC with a fresh XP load to be my rsync server.
