Is "rsync 3.0.9" supported on older linux system running with 2.6.10 linux kernel.
Hello, I am new to usage of this mailing list, I have was going through some of the archives to see if my question is addressed already but I could find it. I could see mostly people are discussing about issues with rsync. My query is not much related with issues with rsync but it is related to compatibility of latest version of rsync with older version of linux. I have two systems with linux kernel version one with 2.6.10 and one with 2.6.14. both of those system use rsync version "2.6.8". I am right now checking the feasibility of porting newer or latest version of rsync on the system with "linux2.6.10" and "linux 2.6.14".

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Rsync doesn't really care about the kernel. What really matters is if you can find a package for whatever version of whatever distro you are on or can you compile it from source yourself.
