Synopsis: Prior to the 2.6.4pre versions, issuing 'rsync rsync://host/module/' behaved effectively as 'ls -l'. I've toyed with various options in an attempt to get an 'ls -l' style output, but to no avail.
As I have a small handful of scripts that rely on this no-longer-functioning functionality, this could be considered a Bad Thing(TM). Following is an example of what I've described. # rsync 2.6.3 on both lithium & helium [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rsync-2.6.3 rsync://helium/slackware/ <snip motd> drwxr-xr-x 4096 2005/03/10 00:56:46 . drwxr-xr-x 4096 2004/10/31 23:34:38 slackware-10.0 drwxr-xr-x 4096 2005/02/03 22:59:40 slackware-10.1 drwxr-xr-x 4096 2005/02/06 21:11:35 slackware-10.1-iso drwxr-xr-x 4096 2004/10/31 23:27:51 slackware-8.1 drwxr-xr-x 4096 2004/10/31 23:30:55 slackware-9.0 drwxr-xr-x 4096 2004/10/31 23:32:46 slackware-9.1 drwxr-xr-x 4096 2005/03/10 00:24:42 slackware-current # log snippet from helium Mar 16 19:07:46 helium rsyncd[8959]: rsync on slackware/ from lithium (192.168.1.3) Mar 16 19:07:46 helium rsyncd[8959]: wrote 572 bytes read 77 bytes total size 0 # rsync 2.6.4pre3 on lithium, 2.6.3 on helium [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rsync-2.6.4pre3 rsync://helium/slackware/ <snip motd> skipping directory /. client: nothing to do: perhaps you need to specify some filenames or the --recursive option? # log snippet from helium Mar 16 19:09:56 helium rsyncd[8971]: rsync on slackware/ from lithium (192.168.1.3) Mar 16 19:09:56 helium rsyncd[8971]: skipping directory /.
