I am wondering if there are known incompatibilities between 2.6.3 and 2.6.4?
I have a debian box with 2.6.4 and a FC3 box with 2.6.3. Most of the time rsync works fine between the two but I am running this command on FC3 box: rsync -azvv --stats --delete --files-from=/root/.rsb2.tmp / [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/backup/bkp.01 And I am getting this error message: building file list ... [sender] expand file_list to 131072 bytes, did move rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4092 bytes: phase "send_file_entry" [sender]: Broken pipe (32) delta-transmission enabled Invalid file index: 268456790 (count=0) [receiver] rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at sender.c(156) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8513 bytes received so far) [generator] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359) If I don't use the files-from option things seem to work just fine. Also if I change [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (so that it is just rsyncing locally) it works fine. Any Ideas? Which box needs upgrading? Or do they both need to be upgraded to 2.6.5?
