Hi there I am running rsync-2.6.9rc2 and am having difficulty getting rsync to report an error when I think it should
I mounted (via "mount -t cifs") a remote Win2K3 server and on a XP client opened a Word document. Then from Linux (FC5) I attempted a bash$ cp /tmp/other.txt file.doc cp: cannot create regular file `file.doc': Text file busy That makes sense - CIFS has the file locked. Then I tried copying the same file via rsync bash$ rsync /tmp/other.txt file.doc bash$ echo $? 0 i.e. rsync says it worked! However it didn't. I ended up with a full copy of other.txt as .file.doc.3s1d3w - but the final rename on top of the original file failed. Rsync didn't return an error. It should? Help? Is this a bug with rsync, or with Samba (perhaps it returned OK on the rename when it shouldn't have?) -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
