Hi,

I'm somewhat randomly getting errors of this sort:

rsync: stat "/coppit/0/Palm/Users/David
Coppit/SplashPhoto/E75FFB6FBF98B52F/DCIM" (in Backups) failed: No such file or
directory (2)

file or directory (2)
rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "/coppit/0/Palm/Users/David

(in Backups): No such file or directory (2)

If I remove --link-dest, I don't get the errors. Also, the messages all seem to
involve paths with spaces in them. It seems like on different runs rsync
sometimes succeeds without errors, but perhaps I'm not being very careful about
deleting the destination directory between runs.

Here is my setup in detail:

Server: Linux running rsync 2.6.8. (This is an unRAID server.) rsyncd.conf:

gid = root
uid = root
log file = /var/log/resyncd.log

[Backups]
  path = /mnt/disk1/Backups
  comment =
  read only = no
  list = yes

Client: Mac OS X running rsync 2.6.3. (The problem also exists for 2.6.0)

My command line is:

/usr/bin/rsync --archive --force --compress --one-file-system --cvs-exclude
--numeric-ids --link-dest=../1 /Users/coppit/Documents/
rsync://root@192.168.1.4/Backups/coppit/0

Let me know if I can provide any more information. I can also upgrade my client
if that would help, although upgrading the server will take some interaction
with the developer of unRAID.
