update RSYNC...
Becouse of so many problems with RSYNC 3.0.8 from 4.2.17 & up,
I suggest to update it to a new version like 3.0.9 to make a progress.
NEWS for rsync 3.0.9 (23 Sep 2011)
Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
Changes since 3.0.8:
BUG FIXES:
- Fix a crash bug in checksum scanning when --inplace is used.
- Fix a hang if a hard-linked file cannot be opened by the sender (e.g.
if it has no read permission).
- Fix preservation of a symlink's system xattrs (e.g. selinux) on Linux.
- Fix a memory leak in the xattr code.
- Fixed a bug with --delete-excluded when a filter merge file has a rule
that specifies a receiver-only side restriction.
- Fix a bug with the modifying of unwritable directories.
- Fix --fake-super's interaction with --link-dest same-file comparisons.
- Fix the updating of the curr_dir buffer to avoid a duplicate slash.
- Fix the directory permissions on an implied dot-dir when using --relative
(e.g. /outside/path/././send/path).
- Fixed some too-long sleeping instances when using --bwlimit.
- Fixed when symlink ownership difference-checking gets compiled into
unchanged_attrs().
- Improved the socket-error reporting when multiple protocols fail.
- Fixed a case where a socket error could reference just-freed memory.
- Failing to use a password file that was specified on the command-line is
now a fatal error.
- Fix the non-root updating of directories that don't have the read and/or
execute permission.
- Make daemon-excluded file errors more error-like.
- Fix a compilation issue on older C compilers (due to a misplaced var
declaration).
- Make configure avoid finding socketpair on cygwin.
- Avoid trying to reference SO_BROADCAST if the OS doesn't support it.
- Fix some issues with the post-processing of the man pages.
- Fixed the user home-dir handling in the support/lsh script.
- Some minor manpage improvements.
TNX again.

- chirpaLuminaryRAIDiator-x86 4.2.20 will have 3.0.9 in it.
- agconmetAspirantWhen is RAIDiator-x86 4.2.20 gonna be released? Before Christmas?
- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredThere are still issues with the current public beta (not with Rsync, I think). It'll be released when it's ready and not before. One would think rushing a release before it's ready (which they don't do) at this time of the year would be the worst possible time to do so as lots of Jedi would take some time off for Christmas. One would think that if it's not ready by early next week it'd be a bit late to be pushing out an update before Christmas.
- chirpaLuminary4.2.20 is still in beta, you can safely use T19 though. The only pending changes right now that may still occur are for iSCSI compatibility with VMware.
viewtopic.php?f=51&t=57193 - travelclarkie1AspirantDoes the latest NV+ firmware (4.1.10) have rsync 3.0.9? If not in the next update can you please do the needed updates?
Thanks,
TC - mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredYes rsync 3.0.9 is already in 4.1.10.
