First, to be clear, you are building rsync on Mac OS X, right? You need at least Tiger. absolutely. i've an up-to-date osx 10.4.8 install, w/ latest XTools etc from Apple. Don't enable acl support on osx. It doesn't work. You probably don't have ACLs on your files anyways as it has to be enab

wayne, thanks for the explanation. i've noticed no mention of the new rsync work (xattr/acl) on appple's boards ... probably not surprising as the current release is rsync v2.6.3 + *their* patches, and they're notoriously tight-lipped about unreleased products. anyway, i've got a mostly-working
