The way rsync is currently written, it opens a directory for every level in the current path. So, if it has recursed down to sending files from foo/bar/baz/, rsync has 3 directories open. That might be the source of the problem if you have a low file-handle limit and a deep directory structure. Try running like "ulimit -n" to see how many open file descriptors are allowed. Note that the directory-recursion code for 2.6.4 release has been changed to not keep the directory handle open when processing a directory's subdirs. (This will be new for 2.6.4pre3.) ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
