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) --- Process 15475 detached <... select resumed> ) = ?
