Description Dan Naumov 2002-04-01 01:16:02 EST

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.0 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020314

Description of problem:
rsync-2.4.6-13 crashes on an attempt to connect to an anonymous FTP site when
using the "-vr --delete" options.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter the following into a term: "rsync -vr --delete
ftp://anonymous@ftp.funet.fi:21/pub/mirrors/ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/


Actual Results:  Got an error:

Failed to exec rsh : No such file or directory
unexpected EOF in read_timeout

Expected Results:  Expected Results:  Should've connected and downloaded the
files ? I dunno, I just tryed rsync for the first time and it broke on me :o

Additional info:

I believe this problem is related to Bug #62452
(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62452) which I reported
earlier when I ran into a similar problem, but only with a newer rsync package
from rawhide.

That means it couldn't exec rsh to connect to the other end, most likely because
you don't have it installed.
