Help needed with Failed to dup/close error

[Ian McCulloch]

Hi - i'm receiving the following error when attempting a local copy with rsync:

Failed to dup/close : Socket operation on non-socket
rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at /home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.0/pipe.c(131)
rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at /home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.0/io.c(201)

I am running this from cygwin on windows xp.  I have verified I have the latest levels of cygwin and rsync. I have another XP environment with cygwin at the exact same levels and it works fine...go figure.

Any ideas greatly appreciated!

thanks.
