Hi, I just found a script using rsync+ssh broken after the 5.6 to 5.7 update, and easily tracked it down to the rsync package update.
It looks like rsync was updated from 2.6.9-2.el5 to 3.0.6-4.el5. I'm all for an rsync update to get all of the cool new options that later versions have to offer, but in my case something broke badly. Specifying only a host to have rsync use ssh no longer works : # No longer works rsync -av remotehost:/foo/ /foo # Still works rsync -av root@remotehost:/foo/ /foo It has already been reported : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=724041 Just a heads up to the list, since this is sure to bite lots of people! Downgrading the rsync package fixes the issue.
