Hi, I got a problem that maybe someone here might have a clue about. Rsync
dies complaining that there is "No space left on device". I been looking
on the web and haven't been able to find a reason for this...

Some back ground info on the two machine:

The "central" server is Linux box running rsync 2.4.6 on a 2.2.17pre13
kernel that is trying to Pull a backup off a "second" machine running the
same version of rsync but has a an older 2.2.12 kernel currently.

On the second server rsync is running in daemon mode with the following
/etc/rsync.conf

- --/etc/rsync.conf--
  log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
  hosts allow = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

  [system]
  uid = 0
  gid = 0
  path = /
  dont compress = *
- --end--

On the "central" server I run the following as a test. In the past this
has worked but recently its not. NOTE: I tried adding --timeout=300 but
this had no effect.

   rsync -auv --exclude "/proc/*" --exclude "/var/tex*" \
   secondmachine.andover.net::system/* /mnt/raid/report

The output of this is the following...

unexpected EOF in read_timeout

NOTE: I just upgraded /usr/bin/rsync on the system, before it was stopping
on another file.

The /var/log/rsync.log on the "second" server says the following...

- --/var/log/rsync.log--
 2001/01/09 22:45:05 [32274] rsyncd version 2.4.6 starting
 2001/01/09 23:04:06 [32309] rsync on backup/* from central.andover.net

 2001/01/09 23:04:34 [32309] transfer interrupted (code 20) at
 rsync.c(229)
- --end--

As you can see I'm not getting a backup. The thing that is that I do have
enough disk space on the "central" server...

- --df -k--
  Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
  /dev/sda2              8696956   1034592   7220580  13% /
  /dev/md0             315062756 195082200 103976208  65% /mnt/raid
- --end--

Anyone with any insight on this type of problem?

        TIA,
                Yazz D. Atlas
