I can use -a so far. Why options do not work? # ./rsync --daemon rsync: --daemon: unknown option rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(793) # rsync --help Segmentation Fault - core dumped Best regards, Mike Li Martin Pool <mbp@samba.or To: Mike.Li@schenker.ca g> cc: Subject: Re: rsync for NCR MP-RAS 01/05/02 09:08 PM Please respond to rsync On 5 Jan 2002, Mike.Li@schenker.ca wrote:> > Thank you.

I'm using the binaries for rsync-2.5.1.SVR42.i386.tar I still have some usage issues when I try to rsync /tmp from local server to /tmp on remote server (sclback). Pls advise. Thanks. on Remote server (sclback) I did a rsync --daemon (I can't see any daemon's running as ps -ef | grep rsync return me nothing) # ./rsync -a /tmp/ sclback:/tmp/ UX:sh (sh): ERROR: rsync: not found rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(139) # ls -l rsync -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 313524 Jan 3 10:45 rsync Thank you in advance.

Hi Dave, It works now. Thanks a lot. Is there any benchmark comparision of transfer rates between ftp, rcp or rsync. Thanks again.

Thanks again.http://rsync.samba.org/rsync/tech_report/ rsync is most useful if there is already an older version of the file on the destination, in which case it should be much more efficient than the other two. Also, rsync can detect files which need to be transferred based on date stamps, and can compress data in transit. -- Martin
