RSYNC_ERR: sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified
RSYNC_ERR: rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so
far) [Receiver]
RSYNC_ERR: rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at
io.c(605) [Receiver=3.0.9]
#!/bin/sh
rsync -a -e 'ssh -t' --rsync-path="sudo rsync" $*
# this prevents the tty and passkey ask issues.
From man rsync
-e, --rsh=COMMAND specify the remote shell to use
--rsync-path=PROGRAM specify the rsync to run on remote machine
You can put the override in the default.conf - this is useful
