Re: Rsync and different sizes

["Sturla Holm Hansen" <sturla@hitconsult.no>]

Actually it's the original that's bigger, here's the rsync-command I use:

 rsync -aizH --delete --stats  --password-file=/etc/rsyncd.pass
username@host::rsyncshare/* /destinationdir

I also get "SIGUSR1 or SIGINT " error on a lot of syncs, got any idea
what's causing this?
