yet another "rsync hangs" question

[mirko.vukovic at us.tel.com]

Hello,

I am sure the list has seem many of these questions, but I did not find one relating to my problem.

I am using rsync 2.6.6 on windows xp professional and cygwin (latest) to sync files between the hard-drives and the portable drive.  There is no other rsync daemon that I am contacting.  

Even if I try to transfer files from one subdirectory to another on the same drive, rsync will hang.  The command is 

rsync -avvvvvvvvv /some-dir/ ./test

Here is what the last few lines look like

... long list of lines like the following
[reciever] i=92 2 ....
recv_file_list done
get_local_name count=93 ./test
created directory ./test
recv_files(93) starting
generator starting pid=3552 count=93 <========= last displayed line.  The rest are after I hit ctrl-C
_exit_cleanup(code=20, file=/home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/rsync.c, line=163): entered
rsync error: received SIGUSR1 or SIGINT (code 20) at /home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/rsync.c(163)
_exit_cleanup(code=20, file=/home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/rsync.c, line=163): about to call exit(20)
/mv-etc/temp
>rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 107 bytes: phase "unknown" [generator]: Connection reset by peer (104)
_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=/home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/io.c, line=1099): entered
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at /home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/io.c(1099)
_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=/home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/io.c, line=1099): about to call exit(12)
  

Any pointers?

Right now I am managing with three bash scripts that use find and mkdir and time-stamp files, but rsync would be a preferable canned solution.

Many thanks,

Mirko
