Hi All,

I have a problem transferring extended attributes from a mac to a mac. A local copy does work. Is this a known issue or am I making a mistake.

the command I am running:
rsync -aXv --rsync-path=/opt/local/bin/rsync /Users/bas/Library/Fonts b...@play.bushbaby.nl :/Users/bas/Desktop/ several copied Fonts are zero Kb, while when I do it local to local they are their correct size and work perfectly?


please note:
- both ends are 10.5.6 and recent installations
- on both ends rsync is installed with macport and are uptodate
- rsync path is the remote macport version of rsync (otherwise the -X option will fail the complete transfer with "unkown option" error. The apple supplied rsync version is used in that case)
- note the xattrs compatibility on both ends while getting version info
