I am have installed rsync 3.1.0 on solaris 10 sparAC.  I have to transfer the
data from one server to other. below is the command I an tring to execute.

/PATH/TO/RSYNC/rsync-3.1.0/rsync -av --rsh=ssh /PART/TO/src/dir1/confg/
ABC at X.XXX.XX.XX:/path/to/dest/dir1/confg/ 

while running the command it prompts me for password for ABC USER and I provide
the same.

I get the below error message 

ksh: rsync:  not found
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226)

I have deployed rync on both the source and destination folder at the same
location.

Let me know if you need further details and if this is a known bug then please

The clue is in the error message:

   ksh: rsync:  not found

As you apparently haven't installed rsync in a standard $PATH location (as
you
specify the path to rsync locally), how do you expect rsync to be found on the
remote system if you don't tell it where it is? In your case you need to use
the --rsync-path option.

Note also that --rsh=ssh is redundant, that's the default.

Please don't open bug reports if you just need help with rsync usage, use
the
mailing list for that.
