So i try 2.5.5 as server, this is new error message :
2002/05/04 04:55:58 [11336] transfer interrupted (code 11) at main.c(295)

Or :
2002/05/06 05:35:14 [15646] reverse name lookup failed
2002/05/06 05:35:14 [15646] forward name lookup failed

This is stange because i'm backuping from a cron shell script like this
rynsc -a ...
date
rsync -a ....

And some rsync work well without name lookup failed and some not :(

I also try to add Ram to client 256 => 384 Mo and also the same thing.

Thanks in advance
David
