...as does openssh. Is there a more current compilation of openssh that uses a more current cygwin1.dll such that both rsync and openssh can function on the same version? This is important because of improvements made to cygwin1 that affect rsync speed. Thanks for your thoughts and help. ---Warren Roach

...3.0.6. I'm using --fake-super, and SSH keys to access a remote server as a normal user. My problem is that there is a local directory that has permissions 0111 ("d--x--x--x"), and rsync throws an error trying to set the xattr: rsync: failed to read xattr user.rsync.%stat for "/roach/backup/root/tcb/lib": Permission denied (13) It appears that rsync knows to create remote files with u+rw, but not directories. Is this a bug, or am I missing something? The full command I'm using is: rsync --stats -v -axH --inplace --delete --rsync-path="rsync --fake-super"...

I have been searching for info on this and haven't found an authoritative answer. From what I have read, oplocks are good because they increase connection speeds, but they are bad because they don't really work, but they actually do work, but they only work in some cases, etc etc. so, here's my problem and my question together: I get tons of these messages every day (over a thousand a

I have been trying to get wine up and running for some time. I work with the Debian Linux system with a KDE Desktop. Debian is supplying version 1.0.1 . I just installed the .deb file from the Wine website which is version 1.1.24. That is the highest version available for the Debian system. All of the versions that I have tried have the same thing wrong with the graphic interface. I will use
