I have not seen any stability issues with 2.6.4 or higher both with Gentoo and a completely unrelated project at work that uses rsync. The project at work did have significant issues with the timeout until we upgraded rsync to 2.6.4. > Thanks for the links; I'll look at the bugs later. Quick summary, when the load on the server side is high, rsync will erroneously timeout. Regards, Paul -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
