I have been continuing to research this. The problem appears as follows:
1. The directory where the data is to be copied is owned by the a specific user assigned to each server and the group rsync (a local user I setup to run the daemon). Others have no rights to the directory.
When rsync creates a sub-directory it assigns no rights at all to it: d----------------
I have tried the -p option on the client but it does not help.
Currently running latest version of rsync---recompiled last night.
Client is windows w/ cygwin.
thx

2004/12/20 17:12:00 [26051] rsyncd version 2.6.2 starting, listening on port 873What is strange is some files and directories copy with no problem at all. I am trying to decide if the problem is on the server (rsync) or client side.The client is a windows machine (server 2000). I verifide that the "active user" has full permissions to the file that are going to be xferred.On the server-- I am running rsync as the user rsync and on the directory I am uploading to the group rsync has rwx rights.I have realized I am running and older version and am currently upgrading to the latest.So what causes sporadic failures on uploads....also it seems as if rsync (client) eventually hangs. If i restart rsyncd and sshd on the server it releases itself from the server and issues clear up. I have been able to successfully sync small directories. I noticed one of the dir's has an " ' " in it...will this cause a problem. Do windows files / dir names need to be modifed before copying up to rsync server.As usual- TIA :) Hopefully I'll be able to answer some of these in the near future.-d__________________________________________________
