           Summary: Including username and hostname in both source and dest
                    fails
           Product: rsync
           Version: 2.6.3
          Platform: PPC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: randy.antler at screenplayinc.com
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


If you include the username and hostname in both the source and destination path, the rsync command 
fails.

Example:

rsync --progress -av username at host01:/root/path/file.ext username at host02:/root/path/file.ext

Results in error message:

mkstemp "/root/path/username at host02:/root/path/.file.ext.bEpHF5" failed: No such file or directory

It would appear that the path given to "mkstemp" is corrupted and cannot work.

One has to login to one of the two hosts and change the rsync command syntax to get the copy to 
work.
