You're right of course, the one I listed is the mailed output from my
script running rsync on a bunch of hosts, sorry about that...
Here's the exact message from the log:
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (5897945 bytes received so far)
[generator]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420)
I guess this could be some instability in the openvpn connection, even if
they seem solid they could glitch for some seconds I guess...
