similar to: rsync error: mknod, invalid argument

Hi all, I ran across a few threads on google regarding FreeBSD's rsync mknod problem but I didn't find any good fix. I was wondering if anyone knows more about this and a good fix. Here's an example of the output. mknod qmail/queue/lock/trigger : Invalid argument mknod qmail/supervise/qmail-send/log/supervise/control : Invalid argument mknod

Hi I am a rsync (on Mac OS X, RsyncX version with extended HFS+/-eahfs forks) beginner (I merely use it for backing up my desktop machine to a bootable external firewire volume, so that I can resume work in case of a harddrive disaster) and I got these messages: mknod "/Volumes/backup/Applications/Plone2/Sites/Default/var/zopectlsock" failed: Invalid argument mknod

Hi all, Currently, umask takes effect when we create device file via mknod, as bellow commands show: ><fs> mknod-b 0760 8 1 /dev/sdf ><fs> ll /dev/sdf brwxr----- 1 root root 8, 1 Apr 15 11:10 /sysroot/dev/sdf But I wonder whether it is reasonable? For mknod(1), when we use option -m mode, we set file permission bits to MODE, not a=rw - umask. Should this also be applicable

The following patch (adapted to rsync 2.5.5 from the one posted in Dec. 2000, http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/rsync/2000-December/003349.html) is necessary to prevent rsync from failing on creating FIFOs or UNIX sockets on FreeBSD. Any chance for it to be integrated in a future release of rsync? Thomas. diff -ur work/rsync-2.5.5/config.h.in work.patch/rsync-2.5.5/config.h.in ---

I installed a fresh copy of Debian 4.0 and Xen 3.1.0 SMP PAE from the binaries. I had a few issues getting fully virtualized guests up and running, but finally managed to figure everything out.
