rsync - Jan 2002 - [Fwd: Re: meaning of "IO Error: skipping the delete...."]]

Hi,
I am doing the testing over this. As soon as the error will repeat, I
will send u a
snapshot of the same, and the command i used that time.

Right now, we are facing another problem, it is showing the following
error:
"send_files failed to open dir1/dir2/dir3/abcde.eps : permission
denied"

Kindly let us know the reason.

Thanks & Regards
Nitin Agarwal
