Hello. We have a few OS X machines running Jaguar 10.2 that's set to rsync over important files for backup purposes. The rsync was happening without any problems until the last Jaguar security update was installed a few weeks ago or so. Now they are giving the below errors and the rsync does not happen: @ERROR: setgroups failed rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (78 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(190) The machines running Jaguar are running rsync version 2.5.7 with the exception of one computer, which is running rsync version 2.5.2. Would anyone have any ideas on a resolution to fix this problem? Randy

Or, if you must stick with 2.5.7 for some policy reason, modify the setgroups() call to use "1, &gid" instead of "0, NULL". ..wayne..
