I'm trying to rsync a filesystem from a Solaris 7 server to a Solaris 8
server. I keep getting the following message when rsync attempts to update
a particular file:
write failed on leelab/NCBI_Data/GenBank/htg : Error 0
rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(243)
Received signal 16. (no core)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (22672537 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(140)
The file it is getting the error on is very large:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leema staff 4633417879 Apr 30 2001 htg
# rsync --version
rsync version 2.5.2 protocol version 26

Does rsync simply not handle files this large? Is there something in
config.h I can change to support large files (I see "#undef _LARGE_FILES"
but the comment above it indicates it is only for AIX)? If I can't get
rsync to copy large files, is there a way to get it to skip them, so that
the rest of the files do get synced?
Thanks
Doug
