Hello, I read the suggestion posted on this list about adding -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to build rsync, but it does not work correctly on my platform which is an: 9000/800/N4000-55 with 64bit hp-ux using HP's C compiler (B3901BA) i solved the problem by building rsync as a 64 bit application: CFLAGS='+O3 +DD64' ./configure --prefix=/opt/rsync could you please add this flag to configure if getconf KERNEL_BITS returns 64 regards, L. P.S. i am not on this list so please flame me privately -- Luca Berra -- bluca@comedia.it Communication Media & Services S.r.l. /"\ \ / ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN X AGAINST HTML MAIL / \
