Rsync an rcp error

Hi,

I have installed rsync (together with its dependencies) in both source and destination HPUX servers (V 11.31). However when I attempt to copy files over (as user root) I get this error :

Code:
# rsync -avz ./* root@10.97.131.4:/tmp/copy
Password:
sh: rsync:  not found.
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: remote command not found (code 127) at io.c(226) [sender=3.1.2]
#

How do I resolve this problem?

I also tried rcp (As it is mentioned in the HPUX depot page that rsync is a replacement for rcp). I get this error :

Code:
# rcp -p ./* root@10.97.131.4:/tmp/copy
rcmd_af: connect: 10.97.131.4: Connection refused

However, I can ping 10.97.131.4.

I add the ".rhosts" file in the destination, and the entry in this file is :

Code:
# cat .rhosts
+

I am still not able to transfer the files. What am I doing wrong and how do I resolve the problem?

NAME
librsync - library for delta compression of streams SYNOPSYS
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <librsync.h> cc ... -lrsync DESCRIPTION
The librsync library implements network delta-compression of streams and files. The algorithm is similar to that used in the rsync(1) and xdelta(2) programs, but specialized for transfer of arbitrary-length octet streams. Unlike most diff programs, librsync does not require access to both of the files on the same machine, but rather only a short ``signature'' of the old file and the complete contents of the new file. The canonical use of librsync is in the rproxy(8) reference implementation of the rsync proposed extension to HTTP. It may be useful to other programs which wish to do delta-compression in HTTP, or within their own protocol. There are HTTP-specific utility functions within librsync, but they need not be used. A number of tools such as rdiff(1) provide command-line and scriptable access to rsync functions. SEE ALSO
rdiff(1) rdiff and librsync Manual http://rproxy.sourceforge.net/. draft-pool-rsync BUGS
The rsync protocol is still evolving. There may be bugs in the implementation. The interface may change in the future, but it is becoming more stable. Many routines will panic in case of error rather than returning an error code to the caller. Patches to fix this are welcome, but at the current state of development aborting seems as useful as trusting to possibly-incomplete checking in the client. AUTHOR
