Summary: rsync through a firewall on Solaris 8

2007-12-24 22:57:00

Hi,

thanks to all that responded to my question. Most recommended to check
whether rsync is installed on the target machine and availablke in the
standard path which it was not. After installing the rsync package it
worked like a charm.

Thanks,

Andreas
