rsync - Jan 2012 - [Bug 8720] New: rsync -n -e ssh creates ssh tunnel which fails to close after command completes

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8720

           Summary: rsync -n -e ssh creates ssh tunnel which fails to
                    close after command completes
           Product: rsync
           Version: 2.6.8
          Platform: x64
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: loy.vandiver at xango.com
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


Multiple rsync commands with '-n' switch used for testing.  The ssh
tunnel is
created but fails to close once the command has completed.  Testing multiple
times will leave runaway ssh tunnels between the initiating and receiving
servers. Very costly on resources.

Sounds like an ssh bug to me.
