Then avoid the --partial option (and also -P, which implies it). You should also upgrade to 2.6.3 on both sides of the transfer so that a misconstructed file will not be saved on the destination side (older versions kept the erroneous file on the destination and tried to resend it at the end of the transfer). Also note that you can use the --partial-dir option (new to 2.6.3) to control where partial files are put, so an alternative to avoiding the --partial option would be to specify --partial-dir=.rsync-part (for example) and rsync would auto-manage the subdirectory ".rsync-part" in any destination directory where a partially transferred file occurs. ..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
