Please see the above line including the part of line-wrapping. I've used the correct rsync tree just as you have noted in the following. >> >> [snipped] >> >> receiving file list ... done >> >> sent 23 bytes received 9 bytes 1.42 bytes/sec total size is 0 >> speedup is 0.00 (DRY RUN) >> >> $ rsync -rmnv -f +_README -f -_* ftp.cn.debian.org::debian >> >> [snipped] >> >> receiving file list ... done drwxr-xr-x 4,096 2015/04/14 >> 11:34:19 . >> -rw-rw-r-- 1,370 2015/01/10 18:21:28 README >> >> sent 47 bytes received 1,389 bytes 574.40 bytes/sec total size is >> 1,370 speedup is 0.95 (DRY RUN) >> _________________________ >> >> Why the same rsync commands give different results on the above two >> debian mirrors?

No, I've tried this tree in my above post. Why do you said I have used a wrong rsync direcory tree. See my above notes for detail. In fact, the issue I meet is as follows, see the following for detail: 1- If I append the `/' in the end of the tree, I'll succeed: werner@debian:~$ rsync -rmnv -f +_README -f -_* ftp.is.co.za::mirror/ ftp.debian.org/ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ [snipped] receiving file list ... done drwxr-xr-x 4,096 2015/04/13 11:18:19 . -rw-rw-r-- 1,370 2015/01/10 18:21:28 README sent 130 bytes received 886 bytes 96.76 bytes/sec total size is 1,370 speedup is 1.35 (DRY RUN) 2- If I don't use the `/' in the end of the tree, the rsync will fail to retrieve anything: werner@debian:~$ rsync -rmnv -f +_README -f -_* ftp.is.co.za::mirror/ ftp.debian.org/ftp.us.debian.org/debian [snipped] receiving file list ... done sent 23 bytes received 9 bytes 7.11 bytes/sec total size is 0 speedup is 0.00 (DRY RUN) But for the case when use of the following rsync server, both case will succeed: werner@debian:~$ rsync -rmnv -f +_README -f -_* ftp.cn.debian.org::debian [snipped] receiving file list ... done drwxr-xr-x 4,096 2015/04/14 11:34:19 . -rw-rw-r-- 1,370 2015/01/10 18:21:28 README sent 47 bytes received 1,389 bytes 319.11 bytes/sec total size is 1,370 speedup is 0.95 (DRY RUN) werner@debian:~$ rsync -rmnv -f +_README -f -_* ftp.cn.debian.org::debian/ [snipped] receiving file list ... done drwxr-xr-x 4,096 2015/04/14 11:34:19 . -rw-rw-r-- 1,370 2015/01/10 18:21:28 README sent 47 bytes received 1,389 bytes 574.40 bytes/sec total size is 1,370 speedup is 0.95 (DRY RUN) Any hints on this issue?
