Hi All I use rsync to back up data between servers for one of my clients. I have just installed a new site for themIn Leeville which is in country NSW. The site is on a 2 way sat link and as such gets ping times of 1200ms regularly. When I try and run the Rsync script I get as far as receiving the file list and then get the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ./hinterland.sh receiving file list ... done Read from remote host nrt-server.hinterland.dyndns.org: Connection reset by peer rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (33116 bytes received so far) [receiver] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (33116 bytes received so far) [generator] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420) I am hazarding a guess that this is to do with the long Ping times. Can anyone out there suggest a way to make the RSYNC more tolerant of the long ping time? Or can you suggest another possible reason for the above errors? I know the script is correct as I used it in house with my laptop to get an initial copy of the data to bring back to the backup server.
