Re: rsync windows hang
----- Original Message -----
From: "Dave Korn"
Off the top of my head, I thought these sorts of problems usually cropped up
only when transferring huge amounts of data or large file sets?
From our experience the larger the number of files and the larger
the transfer the higher the chance of it stalling yes but it really
doesn't take much difference I had a 200Kb exe in a diff the other
day which just wouldn't transfer. It stalled every time on startup.
Some times enabling verbose and progress helps as well but not always.
I ended up spending the 2 hours to get SFU installed on the host in
the end it was pissing me off that much.
OTOH that does suggest another question to the OP: does it make a
difference whether you use rsync to pull this file or push it?
This definitely makes a difference with SCP but tbh I haven't tried
with rsync we always syncing from an cygwin box.

Steve
