error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(298)
I'm running into a problem rsynchronizing over an rsh connection on the same subnet. I get variations of the "unexpected tag" error, consistently failing within io.c at line 298: unexpected tag 88 rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(298) Here's the rsync command I've been using: rsync -lrpogtz --delete --rsh=rsh --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync /home dest:/ I've been all over the net looking for help and am about to give up. Can anyone out there provide some suggestions? Regards, Doug

Try them. --blocking-io use blocking IO for the remote shell --no-blocking-io turn off --blocking-io You also failed to say what platform and rsync version. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.

The 2.6.0 release has some fixes for the compression code (when it gets released in a couple days). ..wayne..
