I'm starting to run rsync 2.6.3 on a new system and receive the following message IO error encountered - skipping file deletion as output whether or not there are files that should be deleted (which they're not) on the remote system. Except for the "delete" capability, everything else seems to work. The rsync command looks like: rsync -avz --delete -e /usr/local/bin/ssh /ftp/pub/ ftpuser@ftpint:./ftpsite/ Thanks, Stan Silverman silver@usgs.gov

See also the --ignore-errors option. ..wayne..
