small problem that I'm having...

The error that says "link_stat . : Permission denied" means that rsync was
unable to get the status of the file named ".".   This is a Unixism for the
name of the current directory.  You don't have access to it. That's all I
can help you with right now.

This is what I get with the vvv option
 
local_version=24 remote_version=24
receiving file list ... link_stat . : Permission denied
received 0 names
done
recv_file_list done
client: nothing to do
 
 
now I run my command line on the client side, should I run this on the
server side ?!
 
does this command mean, send me the files from aix1[module test] all the
files that I need in /test directory?
rsync --stats --progress --delete --partial --timeout=60 -aRntvz
patrick at aix1::test /test
 
thanks.

Try running -v (or -vv or -vvv, as needed); rsync should at least tell you
the name of the file/directory/link it is operating on at the time it gets
the error. PG

Good morning guys,
I've compiled and installed rsync 2.5.5 on 2 AIX 4.3 systems.
 
When I try to run this command
rsync --stats --progress --delete --partial --timeout=60 -aRntvz
patrick at aix1::test /test
I get this message and I don't know why. On both systems I run the command
as root, what could be the cause ?
Oh I was getting the same message with rsync 2.4.X and I still get it with
the latest version.
 
receiving file list ... link_stat test : Permission denied
done
client: nothing to do
 
thanks.
