rsync - Jan 2004 - rsync still hangs on cygwin 1.5.6-1 and 1.5.7

Hi,

Rsync is still hanging under cygwin for me.  I'm using rsync 2.6.0 and
i've tried cygwin-1.5.6-1 as well as a snapshot of 1.5.7.

I've noticed that some people are having success.  I shouldn't have to
do anything interesting in order to make this work, right?

Do make sure that you're talking about the right hang.  The hang that
got fixed was the one that occurs after the transfer successfully
completes (i.e. rsync just fails to exit).  Some folks have reported a
hang while the transfer is active, but I've heard that this only occurs
when using a remote shell (such as ssh) and not daemon mode.  This bug
has not yet been narrowed down to know if it is caused by rsync or the
remote shell.

Hi Wayne,

Thanks for the clarification.  I'm definitely seeing the hang while the
transfer is active using ssh.  I'll have to try my luck with daemon mode.

regards
