There have been a number of fixes for hanging rsync processes in recent
rsync versions. Additionally, there is also a --timeout option in 2.6.4
that will send a sort of keepalive packet if there has been no network
traffic for the specified period of time.

Please try 2.6.4 and let me know the results. Also let me know if you
are not currently able to test the latest version, in that case I'll
leave the bug open in the meantime; otherwise I'll close it after a
couple of weeks.


Thanks,
Paul Slootman
