I am trying to rsync /home from a woody machine to a sarge machine and transfers are failing for larger files - by larger, I mean only about 50MB+ in size.
rsync -az -e ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home . [...hits a large file, hangs somewhere in the middle of transfer...] I've been doing woody <--> woody backups between machines for over a year now without any problems. Only on sarge do I see this.
