I have a Gentoo rsync server runnning on 192.168.168.15. I have several Gentoo machines that sync to it without any problem; I've had this server running for about 2 years. When I try to "emerge --sync" from my laptop ("themis" an Intel i5 dual core), I get the error message below which is not descriptive. Yet, at the same time I have another server (at 192.168.168.16) successfully syncing to #15. Therefore, it appears something is awry with my laptop's system that causes the above error which is not indicative of the problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge --sync Actual Results: When I try to "emerge --sync" from my laptop, I get: themis jlpoole # emerge --sync >>> Starting rsync with rsync://192.168.168.15/gentoo-portage... >>> Checking server timestamp ... timed out rsync error: received SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGHUP (code 20) at rsync.c(543) [Receiver=3.0.7] >>> Retrying... !!!

my error. I was on a different wireless network that the server 192.168.168.15 was not on. This is not a bug.
