Do you like rsync 2.5.5?

2002-04-02 Thread Martin Pool
I'd very much like to get a stable 2.5 release out so that people can upgrade their production machines with confidence and so that distributors can freeze it. I know some people are still running 2.4.6 (+backports) for understandable reasons, but it would be good to give them the option to upgra

metadata in dryrun mode

2002-04-02 Thread Mark Santcroos
As I reported a while back rsync doesn't handle metadata (permissions and ownership) in dryrun mode. I offered to make a patch and that offer still stands. I didn't have the time for it until now and want to pick it up again. I had some ugly hack back then but I want to redo it in a clean way. I

Re: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at token.c(288)

2002-04-02 Thread Stuart Anderson
While this does appear to work in 2.5.4, I suspect that is because of the 2.5.4 whole-file bug. With 2.5.5 it fails again, with the following error message: deflate on token returned 0 (16384 bytes left) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at token.c(288) According to sba

2002-04-02 Thread Allen, John L.
Yes, I had to put "rsync873/tcp" in /etc/services to make it work at all, but that still didn't help fix this particular problem. As I said, it was passing a large port number to getaddrinfo(), one that's clearly the client side of a socket connection, and one that is not going to be in

I have built rsync on Irix 6.5, Fujitsu something, AIX 4.3, Sus Linux 7.x, HPUX something. The only one I've had a problem with is AIX 4.3. IBM tell me getaddrinfo is working as designed and that the port number must be assigned in the /etc/services file. I can't see why this should be so, but the
