that's the problem with me by using extra colon,
i am trying to connect the daemon on the remote server, and when i am giving the password or password through a file, the error message is

rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(604) [sender=2.6.9]

this is problem,

and when using single colon , then i have to provide full path like this
rsync -avz /data/ibnlive/web/html/xml/sms/*.xml ibn@202.87.54.236:/dirname/maindir/

it donesn;t give any error, and the prob is solved, but i am strucking on why the privious command firing error message even the daemon is running on both server and the passwd is also correct.


give me some cluse pl.
