I'm in the process of setting up RsyncX to do incremental backups of my movie and music files. So right out of the box I get an error code 12. Any one know what this is telling me?

It's telling you that it doesn't like you, or it's a bad build.

Um... My note file has a couple of comments about rsync. I'm too lazy to verify the info right now, but... fwiw... There are been releases of rsync leave you with corrupted files. RsyncX, that I find when I google, is from 2004!!!!! LONG before many updates etc!!!!! Is there one newer than 2.1?

I recall reading on Bombich's site/forums (he's the author of CCC), that they used backup-bouncer to test CCC, and the *patched* rcync it includes, to verify that it WORKS.

IMO doing any large scale file manipulations - copy, backup, etc - using outdated tools is a BAD IDEA.

FWIW,
