I just updated to 1.7 to see if it solved problems that I've been struggling with for a while with rsync hanging randomly on different files. I use rsync excessively, and on some systems it just works and never hangs-- but on some it hangs all the time. I'm transferring files via ssh; some say using rsync as a daemon helps, but I'd rather use SSH so I don't have to worry about a wrapper for security purposes... Here's the command I use that hangs rsync quite regularly: /usr/bin/rsync -rtvz --progress build@build:/cygdrive/c/pub/vpsm72/development/* /cygdrive/d/mpsi/vpsm72/ This is running on a Vista x64 machine, attempting a transfer from a W2K SP4 machine. Transfers from this machine work fine from other clients(I have an XP VM for instance that never hangs when issuing the same exact command).=20 Any thoughts? Most of the information online(list archives) about this are back from 2005/2006.. Did people stop using rsync on cygwin due to these problems, or is there a fix that I'm not aware of? Thanks. --=20 Derek -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
