Maybe something stupid in the SSH(D) stack. I checked all running ssh instances for orphans - nothing. Current status quo of testing: 1) After restarting the client, rsync starts working synchronizing changed/missing files on the server via vpn and runs into a timeout after a couple of hours. 2) Restarting the backup (after pkill'ing rsync on both sides, just to be sure) runs into a timeout and no attempt was made to rsync files. 3) Hint: If I remove a directory (13 Files, 50GB total), everything is fine. Are there some magic Unix file attributes on ext4?
