I successfully compiled this using:
CFLAGS=-HAVE_OFFSET64_T -g -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./popt
in my Makefile.

Now, I am having a problem running rsync from a Solaris box to another
Solaris box (both Solaris v9). Both systems are running the same rsync
version (2.5.6).
Oddly enough, when I run the command:
rsync --stats --rsh=/usr/bin/rsh
/tempspace/restore/arch.J0964.20031021.14:37:49
server2:/tempspace/restore/

I get:
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes: phase "unknown":
Broken pipe
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at
io.c(515)

Running the exact command, but to a different machine running RedHat
7.3, the file is written as expected. The file is about 10G in size.
Has anyone seen this Solaris problem?
Thanks,
Michael
