Hello. I just installed the latest version of cygwin (1.5.18-1) from www.cygwin.com on my Windows XP machine. I have had a lot of success between Linux boxes but after many months of mixed results I have had much less than perfect luck with rsync from a Linux box [LOCAL] to a windows box [REMOTE]---that is, constant hanging.
I have tried to follow the FAQ on using strace to figure out why things are hanging, but I'm not understanding what gets launched where and in what order. I created the rsync-debug script as suggested, but it's unclear how to use it. Would you guys mind giving a step-by-step on how to get this strace info? For example, let's say on [LOCAL/Linux] I want to issue the command: rsync -avz [EMAIL PROTECTED]/Windows]:/path/to/stuff/ dest/on/local/ Do I first launch the rsync-debug on [REMOTE/Windows]? Do I modify the above command in order to get things rolling? Cheers and thanks in advance. -Ken -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
