Hi,

I am trying to mirror a suse part with rsync -tvvvvvvrl
--delete-excluded --stats --progress --exclude i386/9.1-personal-iso/
--exclude i386/live*/
ftp.gwdg.de::pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/
/var/ftp/pub/suse/i386 2&> rsync.log

Randomly it hangs and after about 15 minutes I am getting an error. I've
copied the last lines of my log:

I talked with the admin of the rsync server. We can't find any failure.
Anybody an idea?

Thanks,
