I'm getting this same error on one of my Windows clients. I've been through google and the archives on this list and see where the question about this error message is often asked and virtually never answered. The only answers I saw to it talked about things that weren't relevant in my case.
Does anyone know what exactly this error message tells us and how to go about tracking down the specific problem? In my case, I have been deploying rsyncd to a number of Windows boxes over the past week and so far, all the rest are working, but not this one machine. It runs for about an hour....transfers a couple gigs...then gets this error message every time. (does NOT appear to be stopping on the same file every time, though.) The Windows machine is a Windows XP laptop that runs on wireless. I have another Windows XP laptop on wireless too and that one runs just fine with the same version of rsyncd on it. Anyone have any thoughts? -Ken On Tue, 2006-05-02 at 11:12 +0100, Tony Molloy wrote: > I'v been running backuppc on several Linux and Windows boxes for the last > few months without any problems.
