rsync not copying all files from smb-mounted fs
We have an old windows server here, with a relatively large share upon it (200GB, 1-2 million files). Our entire network is Linux (RH8.0) based, and we therefore automount this using the samba client.
We have just begun migration to a linux fileserver, to save ourselves having to use lovely Windoze...  but we have a small problem:When we run 'rsync -avz /rmt/smbfs /linuxfs' it hasn't actually copied all the files. Is this a problem with rsync, or a problem with samba? Perhaps it's a problem with Windows, in which case, i just don't care any more! lol If it is a problem with rsync or samba, can we leave this topic where it is to try and troubleshoot? Admittedly, if it does look like a Windoze problem, lets move this to the Windows forum, but to me it looks like a samba issue...

You havent posted any error message.
Put a second "v" in the options so it looks like: Code:

a little difficult unfortunately... this rsync was done a while ago, and the windows volume housing the data has since been nuked. We got the missing files from tape in the end, but it does mean the test is unrepeatable...
