Hi All,
I am somewhat new to rsync and am looking for some guidance. I've been using
it successfully for a couple months syncing CentOS updates from a university
mirror with the following specs:
rsync version 2.6.8 protocol version 29
rsync -artv
rsync://mirrors.usc.edu/centos/5.6/updates/i386/RPMS/--exclude=debug/
/var/www/html/centos/5/updates/i386
Everything works fine for this connection and sync.
I am attempting to do the same sync on a different network which is failing
with the following:
rsync version 2.6.8 protocol version 29, rsync version 3.0.6 protocol
version 30 (both versions fail)
rsync -artvvvv
rsync://mirrors.usc.edu/centos/5.6/updates/i386/RPMS/--exclude=debug/
/var/www/html/centos/5/updates/i386
[client] add_rule(- debug/)
opening tcp connection to mirrors.usc.edu port 873
note: iconv_open("UTF-8", "UTF-8") succeeded.
sending daemon args: --server --sender -vvvvlogDtpre.is .
centos/5.6/updates/i386/RPMS/

_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=759): about to call exit(12)
I have searched quite a bit on the errors and have not found anything
helpful as of yet. I set up an rsync server running rsyncd to attempt
connection from this network.
Here is the output to the server log:
2011/10/24 11:47:44 [11616] connect from network.failing.com(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
2011/10/24 11:47:44 [11616] rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer

(code 12) at io.c(614)

Here is the output from the failing network system:
rsync -artvvvv rsync://rsync.server.com:/var/www/html/centos/5/updates/i386
/var/www/html/centos/5/updates/i386
opening tcp connection to rsync.server.com port 873
note: iconv_open("UTF-8", "UTF-8") succeeded.

_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=759): entered

_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=759): about to call exit(12)
My suspicion is that it might be a firewall issue (network, not local
system) but I don't handle the network firewall on this network. I asked
them to open 873 tcp/udp to the machine and they say it is done so. Prior to
the change the rsync attempt just hung and timed out.
Any suggestions to trouble-shoot the issue would be greatly appreciated. I
am kinda stuck on what to try next. Are there some test I can run to
pinpoint the problem?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Herb
