Aha!
I finally realized what I did to cause the problems!! I saw someone else mention firewall on another issue and I realized I mucked around with my firewall settings at the same time my problems started. It wasn't 0.18 at all! Because when I went back and looked at the session where I thought rsync started working again with 0.19, it was actually using rsync. I tried rsync again and it didn't work UNTIL I went back and re-enabled remote login (SSH). D'oh. Something so simple. Thanks for the assistance (and it pays off to just peruse the posts even if they don't initially look like something you can answer or have a concern with!)
Thanks everyone for the hard work on this system.

Okay,
fink selfupdate just wouldn't work using rsync, so I went back to
fink selfupdate --cvs
fink 0.19 installed fine. Then I tried
fink selfupdate -rsync
and all is roses again. Anyone have any ideas why 0.18 stopped getting updates via rsync?

<AKH> This seems strange--although it might explain why others have had mysterious rsync issues.

Later,
