All - I understand the focus of the discussion below is Linux - Solaris time outs but is anyone else seeing the same problem under Linux - Linux when running 2.4.6 rsync --deamon? Currently I'm seeing it from the client end. Both of the servers I'm pulling from were updated to 2.4.6 and then I

I'm using Samba to mount some folders from a Windows machine. Do you mean that the folders are on the windows machine, and you're using the Linux smbfs filesystem to make the available on Linux? I then use rsync to make a copy of the folder. When this runs it uses too many resources causing
