I am using rsync over ssh (set RSYNC_RSH=ssh) to copy a bunch of files
between 2 linux boxes [RH 8.0 client and RH 9.0 server]. Both ends are running rsync 2.5.6, after compiling from sources. I notice that rsync copies *all* the files even if nothing changes. The way I can tell is that the time stamp changes for all the files on the client side. The command I used was: export RSYNC_RSH=ssh rsync -rv root@colby:/var/tmp/rgy . -Shanker |

Problem is fixed. Using rsync -av fixes it.
Looks like there is some bug in the -r switch. > I am using rsync over ssh (set RSYNC_RSH=ssh) to copy a bunch of files > between 2 linux boxes [RH 8.0 client and RH 9.0 server].
