rsync 3.0.7 network errors on MS-Windows

[andrew.marlow at uk.bnpparibas.com]

The machines to which I distribute have changed and the new machines have 
the older version of rsync, 2.6.6. The problems have gone away. This makes 
me wonder if it is something that was introduced after 2.6.6.......

Andrew Marlow
