Bugzilla Bug 44564

Hi,

I am having some serious trouble.

I can't sync my portage tree.

>>> starting rsync with rsync://217.72.114.101/gentoo-portage...
>>> checking server timestamp ...
Welcome to rsync2.de.gentoo.org

Server Address : 217.72.114.99
Hardware       : PIV 2.66 Ghz, 1024 Megs of RAM
Connectivity   : 100 Mbit/s

receiving file list ...
link_stat "metadata/timestamp.chk" (in gentoo-portage) failed: No such file or directory
0 files to consider
client: nothing to do: perhaps you need to specify some filenames or the --recursive option?
rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(653)
>>> retry ...


I tried it many times, but no luck.

Ping works, sambe behaviour on three different boxes.
