Hi It seems that the rsync binary that ships with Apple's new OSX 10.4 has some custom patch applied that enables it to use extended attributes. According to the man page the "--extended-attributes" or "-E" option is the trick.
All Linux binaries I have come across do not support this option, so that rsyncing from OSX to Linux fails. I was wondering whether it would be possible to patch rsync to support this on Linux (I already found out that this is dependent on the underlying filesystem, which is XFS in my case).
