Hello, I am trying to use rsync (version 2.5.5) in a server client model to distribute software files. When I kick off the rsync client on an AIX 4.3.3 pwr3 platform, I get the following error message. We are in a real bind to get this protocol going; any help/insight/suggestions would be "greatly" appreciated. rsync: getaddrinfo: grp4c 873: Host not found rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at ../clientserver.c(97) _exit_cleanup(code=10, file=../clientserver.c, line=97): about to call exit(10) I can rsh/ping/telnet to grp4c (the server machine - linux) from the AIX client machine with no problems. It looks like the rsync client never actually contacts the server at all (when I stop the server on grp4c, I get exactly the same message on the client). I tried to search on the rsync web site for this problem but could not find a solution. Thanks for your help. Randy

Randy: I suspect it's running chrooted, and can't see the necessary items to resolve names. Fastest is to turn off chroot. You may be able to get by with just turning off "hosts allow" and/or "hosts deny". It seems that maybe an /etc in the root of the module will take care of it, or so i think i remember reading.

I'm sorry. I guess i didn't read your question very well. I think chroot when i hear resolution problems. I think your problem is IPv6-related. As I understand it, "::" is used like "." is in IPv4. Any v6-ers out there who can help out?

Your recommendations would only apply to a Linux platform (I think). Although the rsync server is running on a Linux platform, the rsync client never actually contacts it (I get the same error message whether the server is running or not). Any other ideas?
