Hello every one, for the first i am trying to use rsync to copy files from remote server to local machine.
i am using the rsync version 3.0.1 protocol version 30 on local machine. remote server is using rsync version 2.6.3 protocol version 28. i read on web that to copy files from remote server we need to update username&password in the file secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.scrt ,but this file is not available on my etc directory. Actually i am using the following command to copy files from remote server to local machine. *$ rsync -v -e ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/webroot.txt /tmp* ** after executing the above command I am getting the following error. *==============================================================* *ssh: openbsd.nixcraft.in: no address associated with name rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver] rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(635) [receiver=3.0.1]* *==============================================================* ** I have different rsync versions on local machine & remote server is it a problem to copy files from remote server to local machine. could you please suggest me a solution so that i can move further to copy files. it's very urgent,waiting for your reply. Thanks alot with regards, mannam srinivas
