Ok I found a bug about this:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6542

and it says fixed by upgrade. I found a way to upgrade. Using:

rsync  version 3.1.1  protocol version 31
 on receiving side that issues the rsync command, and

rsync  version 3.1.1  protocol version 31
 on the remote sending side.

Im still getting the same thing:

rsync: hlink.c:126: match_gnums: Assertion `gnum >= hlink_flist->ndx_start' failed.

/kc
