Hi, I have managed to generate some weird errors over the last few years playing with *nix type systems but this one takes the cake. Whilst rsync'ing a directory I got the following error twice in a row Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input. rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (426487689 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (182042 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165) Does anyone have any ideas ? -bash-2.05b$ uname -r 4.8-RELEASE -bash-2.05b$ rsync -v rsync version 2.5.6 protocol version 26 Any pointers are really appreciated, This machine is a file server that has sucessfully crashed four times in the last week with hardware issues and just when I thought I had that beat I get this lot.
