Alexander, When I run the command rsync -az -v rsync://distfiles.master.finkmirrors.net/finkinfo//TIMESTAMP /opt/fink/fink/TIMESTAMP.tmp from the command line it fails with the same error message. rsync: failed to connect to distfiles.master.finkmirrors.net: Connection refused (61) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-35.2/rsync/clientserver.c(105) [receiver=2.6.9]
I also considered the possibility that the latest Apple update to SSL had modified the system rsync and caused some problem, so I compiled rsync from source and tried that version. It fails with the same error message.
