Hi all
 
I am having trouble running an rsync script using cron.  When I run these commands from the command line, they run fine.  I have upgraded the rsync version to the latest one (2.6.7) on both the source and backup machines, but am still getting these errors.  Can you please advise?
 
Here is the script:
#!/bin/bash
rsync --blocking-io --exclude-from=/home/backups/rsync/attachments-exclude.lst --delete -ave ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/attachments/ /backups/var/varattachments/var/attachments/ | mail -s "`hostname`: rsync of /var/attachments/ from source_server done for `date '+ %m/%d/%Y'`" backups
Here is the cron message that is sent out...

Read from remote host source_host: Connection reset by peer

rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (1879176 bytes received so far) [receiver]

rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359)

rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes: phase "unknown" [generator]: Broken pipe (32)

rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(909)

These errors are not consistent... I mean on one day... it gets
 
Thanks

Srinivas
