Hello,<br>       I am having a very strange problem with rsync.  If I
attempt to ONLY rsync the updates folder everythign works great. 
However when I try to add the os folder for i386, ia64 and x86_64 to
rsync (used for kickstart builds), it just hangs.  To cut down on the
download time I had copied the contents of the DVD for all three
platforms into the os directory.  <br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;"># sh updates.cron</span><br>receiving file list ...<br>9761 files to consider<br>./700 files...<br>os/<br>os/i386/<br>os/i386/CentOS/<br>os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/
