I am getting the following with rsync 2.6.9: > :~/tmp/rsync> mkdir a > :~/tmp/rsync> mkdir a/dir > :~/tmp/rsync> touch a/dir/file > :~/tmp/rsync> mkdir b > :~/tmp/rsync> rsync -r --existing a/ b > default_perms_for_dir: sys_acl_get_file(dir, SMB_ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT): No such file or directory, falling back on umask > rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(977) [sender=2.6.9]
This was fixed in rsync 3.0.0.
