I am trying to rsync a handful of directories between Solaris and Cygwin over a dialup line. Both are running version rsync 2.5.1 with ssh. Most of the directories work fine, except one of the same directories fails every time with this error: Read from remote host X.X.X.X: Connection reset by peer rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (5149 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(139) Is this a known bug, can I help someone fix it by debugging it any further, what do I need to do ? -Thanks Stephen More
I'm not an rsync guru, but it sounds like your dialup connection is getting dropped. You might have your dialup settings to disconnect after some time of inactivity. I found that M$ doesn't check ALL traffic, just IE,email and ???. My ftp utility was giving me the same sort of error till I turned off that setting.

Thanks for the info but I don't think my connection is getting dropped. I have my modem speaker turned on, and know when it redials. I can ping, http, ssh or scp after/while the rsync fails. -Stephen More At 10:27 AM 1/14/02 -0500, Thomas Lambert wrote:>I'm not an rsync guru, but it sounds like your dialup connection is >getting dropped.
