The OS has a maximum size that they will allow for the path+filename to be specified. If a filename combined with its path exceeds this length, the OS will complain about it and refuse to open it by that name. Your only options are to either make the name shorter, or chdir down deeper in the hierarchy before copying the file. ..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
