Hi Just found that I have problems with rsync. The box has RC2 installed
and runs an rsync daemon. However, as soon as a client tries to connect 
the server closes the connection (same result with rh9 and SL4 clients):

[root@newkeen ~]# rsync -vvvvvaz --password-file /etc/rsync.pass --delete 
backup@$server::hdds/users-$server/ /hdds/users-$server/
opening tcp connection to bounder port 873
opening connection using --server --sender -vvvvvlogDtprz . 
hdds/users-bounder/ 
(Client) Protocol versions: remote=29, negotiated=29
receiving file list ... 
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (4 bytes received so far) [receiver]
_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=420): entered
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420)
_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=420): about to call exit(12)


I tried to start the rsync daemon manually with -vvv but this did not
show anything. Then I straced the daemon: Obviously it forks a child and
the child then segfaults:


[pid 15475] stat64("/usr/lib/sse2", 0xbfec146c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file 
or directory)
[pid 15475] open("/usr/lib/libnss_nis.so.2", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No 
such file or directory)
[pid 15475] stat64("/usr/lib", 0xbfec146c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
directory)
[pid 15475] --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---

<... select resumed> )                  = ? ERESTARTNOHAND (To be 
restarted)
--- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 0 (0) ---

Any insight is highly appreciated,

Gerald

PS: Manual rsync over ssh works fine.
