'error in rsync protocol data stream' - Tim Conway

[Trevor Marshall]

Tim,
I reported a protocol data stream error on 9/8/2002
Deatils are in my postes at that time
rsync still fails everytime I run it.

This time I added three v's as you just suggested and rsync just hung with
two tasks in execution thus:
root      3178  0.1  0.9  1796  868 pts/1    S    09:57   0:00
/usr/bin/rsync -vvva --delete --exclude=root/snapsh
root      3179  0.0  0.6  1628  632 pts/1    S    09:57   0:00
/usr/bin/rsync -vvva --delete --exclude=root/snapsh

and the last data rsync put out was:
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_b1.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_default.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hardware.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hisax.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_icn.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_ignore.templ)
-----------then hangs---------------------

Any ideas?
Last time I was told to upgrade my hardware and OS.
I run a solid, scrupulously updated, SuSE 7.3 system on reliable P-II/400
hardware
