I am trying to restart getting rsync to run on OpenVMS, and find a way around the fork() issue, posibly using POSIX threads.
It occurs to me that i may have been overly encouraging in my last followup.
Getting rsync to work using threads, whether pthreads or a superior form, will require enormous intrusive changes to the code.
While my testing is far from complete, and I have a few OpenVMS specific things to work out, it appears that the changes to make the client use pthreads were minor, and as of yesterday a client on OpenVMS is able to properly replicate a sample directory of plain text files from a local server running rsync on Windows 2000.
