Excuse me, The permissions of the destination directory are 600 (no execution permissions neither for the user, nor the rest of users). I don't use a script (i did but after got that error i did the test without it)
As i said in the first message, the command is: yoshi:~$ rsync -av sinc.sh -e "ssh -o ForwardX11=no -l yoshi_r" remote:.ssh/sinc2 Password: building file list ... done sent 78 bytes received 20 bytes 28.00 bytes/sec total size is 34665 speedup is 353.72 yoshi:~$ echo $? 0 That command has no effect in remote host (Remember that user has no x permission in .ssh on remote side) BUT, if i do: yoshi:~$ rsync -avv sinc.sh -e "ssh -o ForwardX11=no -l yoshi_r" remote:.ssh/sinc2 opening connection using ssh -o ForwardX11=no -l yoshi_r remote rsync --server -vvlogDtpr . .ssh/sinc2 Password: Password: building file list ... done delta-transmission enabled rsync: recv_generator: failed to stat "/home4/yoshi/.ssh/sinc2": Permission denied (13) total: matches=0 tag_hits=0 false_alarms=0 data=0 sent 78 bytes received 20 bytes 10.32 bytes/sec total size is 34665 speedup is 353.72 rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(791) yoshi:~$ echo $? 23 Hope that helps j Wayne Davison wrote:
No, that's not normal at all, and I can't reproduce such a situation. I always see a return code of 23 from rsync if it can't copy a file into a directory (and also an error about the inability to open the temp file in the unwritable directory). Do you have a script, function, or alias that could be stripping away the return code? ..wayne..
