link-dest

[Lars Heer]

Hi,

with rsync-HEAD-20050114-1853GMT
I receive following error:
var/run/samba/brlock.tdb
Warning: unexpected read size of -7004 in map_ptr
var/www/dyndns/gallery2/g2data/cache/derivative/8/7/
ERROR during backup for marge at Sat Jan 15 18:25:47 CET 2005

I only put the self compiled rsync on the executing machine...
Could this be the error?

Lars
