On the daemon box, check the status of the xinet service. I find this hangs about every 6 months on my backup service. Killing it then starting it solves the problem. A restart doesn't do it<BR>

Subject: [TLUG]: rsync suddenly fails?<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
I've been using rsync to keep a backup of my files on another local machine,<BR>
worked great...til today.<BR>
<BR>
Sync'd my Sylpheed and Visor folders no problem, then went to sync my config<BR>
files like so:<BR>
<BR>
[joehill@node1 ~]$ rsync -rt .config/ 194.168.0.4:~/backup/<BR>
ssh: connect to host 194.168.0.4 port 22: Connection timed out<BR>
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]<BR>
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(434)<BR>
<BR>
That's funny, because I can still SSH into that box.<BR>
<BR>
Any idea what could have happened?<BR>
<BR>
