Sounds like you're on track. I thought I was but it is far from over.
However, I would (I do in fact) just install the prebuilt rsync from sunfreeware. I just did. I tried building it from source but that didn't get very far so I just got the prebuilt packages from SFW. I tested with that and still get the same old
You said you have solaris 10, I don't remember what platform, so, assuming it's sparc, It is an Ultra20 with an AMD64.
for you to install rsync, you could cut & paste this recipe verbtim, paste the whole block from sfi () { to } right into a telnet/ssh session. Then run the sfi <pkg> commands manually one at a time, in the order shown. That's a cool script. Thanks.
If you don't have wget or curl just get the files any way you want of course and run the gunzip & pkgadd commands manually like the first example. I had to get those a while ago for some reason I don't remember any more.
So far everything I tried gives me the same error. rsync: The server is configured to refuse --iconv rsync error: requested action not supported (code 4) at clientserver.c(840) [receiver=3.0.3] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (5 bytes received so far) [sender] _exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=635): entered rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(635) [sender=3.0.3] _exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=635): about to call exit(12) No matter what options I try, I still get the "refuse --iconv" message. I got the impression from the man page that if I didn't specify a charset that the iconv would be refused unless I added no-iconv to the refuse options. Since I wasn't getting anywhere with the Solaris setup, I installed SuSE 11 on an old spare PC. After getting the rsync daemon setup there, I tried it and got the same message. It seems that the rsync daemon on the SuSE system has the same problem. So, since the SuSE setup has the same problem I will focus on that first since I might have a better chance of getting help. Perhaps if I get the SuSE one working, I will have found the solution for the Solaris one as well. Can anyone help with rsync on SuSE?
