Hi Matt, Thanks for the info. The new Debian Sarge server I built is using 2.6.9 version of rsync which before, was not that new. It used to work fine (as far as I can tell you) that sending a single file, would also create the directory if it did not exist. Am I wrong to say this? Ever since the

Hi I want to use pre-xfer exec function in rsync for permition checking. In my Linux boxes, it successed. But today, I tried to put them in my FreeBSD box, it failed. I've checked the log, but found the pre-xfer exec returns always be -1, which means waitpid failed to get the return sta
