I know the NT port isn't exactly "official" but has anyone else noticed
problems with it when talking to Linux clients?
We're trying to rsync data between a Linux rsync client and NT rsync server,
over a very well-used 128Kb Frame-Relay site from New Zealand to Sunnyvale
California (read: major latency issues). Whenever the Linux rsync client is
used more than a couple of times against the NT server (could be just
getting rsync share listing, could be actual replication), it crashes the
rsync server! If the same action is done from a NT workstation running
rsync, the problem doesn't occur.
It looks to me like some IP-stack issue, but other than that I'm stumped -
can't really do much debugging on the NT side, so I don't know much more.
This has been seen with rsync from 2.1 - 2.4...
