I too am experiencing rsync 3.0.7-1 hanging with ssh on 1.7.1-1.
=20
I tried building rsync without socketpair as others suggested, but it did n=
ot make a difference.  (I presume I built it correctly since --version repo=
rts "no socketpairs".)  It appears to hang only on large files and consiste=
ntly failing on the same ones.  Thousands of smaller files sync just fine. =
 Using --progress shows that it usually hangs at about the same percent (i.=
e. 3% complete).  Once it hangs, it consumes my cpu.  It then ignores inter=
rupts (^C), requiring a kill -9.  I also installed the sans-socketpair buil=
d on the remote to no avail.

I'm running windows server 2008 on the client and 2003 on the remote (both =
32 bit).

I'm not a C developer and the extent of my abilities is little more than co=
nfigure/make, but I'm willing to help diagnose this problem since others ar=
e having trouble reproducing it.  What can I try?

Marco
