We have a server with rssh-2.2.3 on CentOS 3, and tried connecting with rsync-3.0.6 from CentOS 5.
I get "insecure -e option not allowed". When I look a the source for rsync, I find it's adding "-e.s" for some reason but I can fix that by using --protocol=26. I tried building the current version of rssh (2.3.4-1) thinking that maybe the problem was fixed. But it's actually worse. I don't know why rsync is sending "--sender" etc., but it's the standard RedHat version of rsync. I'm guessing that rssh is not parsing long options properly and is just finding 'e' in --server. Seeing as rsync is one of the documented commands that works with rssh, I'm wondering what's going on. $ rsync -vv andrew@myserver:public_html/two/try2.html . opening connection using: ssh -l andrew trshare rsync --server --sender -vve.s . public_html/two/try2.html illegal insecure e option This account is restricted by rssh.
