What is the error? I assume you know that with that syntax the
filelist.txt is local rather than remote.

Hi, I've been using rsync on fedora over ssh to sync directories for
decades, but suddenly having a problem with transferring multiple files
at a time to one specific host using --files-from. I can't think of what
might have changed to have caused this. Using rsync to transfer a single
file to this problematic host works successfully. It appears to be
related to the number of files in the --files-from filelist. More than
nine and it stalls; less than nine and it finishes successfully. I'm
using the same version of rsync on both sides.
(Server) Protocol versions: remote=31, negotiated=31
(Client) Protocol versions: remote=31, negotiated=31
When running the following command, it appears to collect the list of
files to be transferred, successfully makes the connection with the
remote server, but then just stalls. Using strace on the remote side
shows rsync appears to be waiting for data.
rsync -avvvv --files-from=/etc/mail/filelist.txt -e 'ssh -i
/root/keys/sync-key-v4' /etc/mail/tmp/ polaris:/var/tmp/one/
sync-key-v4 is a passwordless ed25519 key, but I've tried a handful of
other ed25519 keys.
Could it be related to packet size or some kind of network disparity?
It's not related to the size of the files, as I've tried large and small
and it doesn't matter - if the number of files exceeds 9, it fails.
