In my process of teaching Linux, I am setting up a repository server so that the student can obtain the downloads rather than go to the Internet. Had one system working and was great, but had to create a new server. Now the rsync command is not working: rsync -avH --exclude "debug/" --exclude "headers/" --exclude "repodata/" mirror.dulug.duke.edu::fedora/linux/core/updates/3/i386/ /var/www/html/yum/Fedora/Core/3/updates/ rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(515) Man page specifies that code 12 is "Error in rsync protocol data stream". I am not a programer, so would appreciate if somenone can help me understand what has happened, or if I am making a "stupid" typing error (known to happen often). As I noted, it was working previously on another system (no longer available), and now the command does not work. Appreciate any help. Dennis Rice dennis@xxxxxxxxxxx
