rsync error: error allocating core memory buffers (code 22) at util.c(238)

If I use rsync as: rsync -rltva /dir /dir2  it works fine.

If I use rsync as: rsync -rltva hosta::dir  it works fine and dir points to
in rsyncd.conf /acct/dir I get the following error:


ns1: /acct/peter> rsync ns1::acct    
overflow: flags=0xe8 l1=3 l2=20709376 lastname=.
ERROR: buffer overflow in receive_file_entry
rsync error: error allocating core memory buffers (code 22) at util.c(238)
ns1: /acct/peter> 

How can I trace what is causing the problem?  The filesystem I am trying to
copy has about 6000+ file in it.

Thanks
