Newer version of rsync?

[Joe Smith]

Is there a newer version of rsync out there?
I keep getting "Illegal instruction" on just some directories (not all).


=[tivo:root]-# rsync -av /var 192.168.1.5::tivo/root
building file list ... Illegal Instruction

=[tivo:root]-# ls -l hack/bin/rsync
-r-xr-xr-x 1 501 501 251672 Dec 20 2003 hack/bin/rsync
=[tivo:root]-# sum /var/hack/bin/rsync
18647 246

linux% wget http://tivo.samba.org/download/tridge/rsync
linux% ls -l rsync
-rw-r--r-- 1 jms jms 251672 Sep 18 2000 rsync
linux% sum rsync
18647 246


I can copy /var/* using separate rsync commands, but not /var or /etc as a whole.

I'm getting this error on some directories as well. Did you ever find a solution to the problem?

It's been nearly 18 months since I first posted, still no answers.

On my Philips HDR112, the symptoms are:

=[joe-tivo:root]-# rsync -av /var jms@192.168.1.5::tivo
Password:
building file list ... Illegal Instruction
=[joe-tivo:root]-# rsync --version
rsync version 2.4.4 protocol version 24

On Linux, the error message is:

Apr 09 20:48:51 mathras rsyncd[20846]: Client is very old version of rsync, upgrade recommended.
Apr 09 20:48:53 mathras rsyncd[20846]: rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (4159 bytes received so far) [receiver]

Transfering a small number of files works; large directories fail.

Wanted: rsync version 2.6.x compiled for Series 1.
Does anyone have such a beast?
