rsync issues

[Greg Albrecht]

just to go through what i'd normally check:
1) make sure the source host is up at 100full
2) make sure the port the source host is plugged into is 100full
3) make sure the destination host is up at 100full
4) make sure the port the destination host is plugged into is 100full

given all of that, if you still have trouble you might want to start
doing some packet dumps and see if one host or the other are
terminating the connection:

$ tcpdump -n -vvv -s 1518

-g
