It's not the best answer, but it should work to reduce your burden for the moment.... cd parent-of-directories for FLDR in dir1 dir2 dir4 dir17 do cd $FLDR rsync -avP --e ssh source/$FLDR . cd .. done -dP

McGrew Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 5:35 PM To: rsync@lists.samba.org Subject: Max files/buffer overflow Hello All, I am having an interesting issue where using the command 'rsync -avP -e ssh' seems to want to bail out on filesystems that have more than about 1.2 million files. Using that same command on smaller filesystems works like a charm! The server is rsync 2.6.8 protocol 29 and the destination is rsync 2.6.3 protocol 28. The server is Fedora Core 4 and the client is Mac OS 10.5.2. What am I doing wrong, how can I get around this. I have about four million files on a file system that I need to replicate to a disk in this Mac! Do I just need to upgrade? Can someone point me to binary packages for Fedora Core 4 and Mac OS 10.5 (Intel)??? Help!
