It's my understanding that even for local --> local copies, rsync spawns multiple instances and pipe between "sender" and "receiver" instances, so a problem with pipes could still cause a timeout. > --- Process 242824 loaded C:\bin\cygwin1.dll at 0000000180040000 > --- Process 242824 loaded C:\bin\cygiconv-2.dll at 00000003fac60000 > 6 6 [main] rsync (242824) > ********************************************** > 91 97 [main] rsync (242824) Program name: C:\bin\rsync.exe (windows How was cygwin installed that C:\ appears to be the root? Or is this someone else's rsync package that is using cygwin dlls? I'm afraid the rest of the trace goes fairly far over my head, but do other pipes work? ls -l | less mkfifo /tmp/foo echo bar >/tmp/foo & cat /tmp/foo if these also fail, I would think the problem has to do with pipes failing rather than rsync itself, but this is only a guess on my part -- Erik ps: please put traces into plain text attachments rather than the message body -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
