Response to: More issues with rsync

Hey Alex, I'm seeing the same error on a Powerbook with RsyncX 2.1 archiving data from the laptop to a mounted SMB share.


Did you ever find out what causes this? Just for the record, I'm using sudo to run the backup script so permissions shouldn't be an issue. Google hasn't been of much help so far besides just leading me to this discussion =/

    I had a similar problem on OS X 10.3 rsyncing to a samba share on my windows box.

    I was able to get things transferred by using --timeout flag in rsync. Set it as high as you need to avoid the errors. (30 or 60 worked for me.)
