<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=000422319-20022006>Hi, I use the
program Unison to synchronize two servers and have been having a problem
recently with errors saying mkdir failed.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=000422319-20022006>The program tries to
make backup copies of any file it is going to overwrite before it actually does
the sync. The backups have been failing because of the mkdir failure. To try and
find the problem, I logged in as root and then tried the same command that
unison was trying and it failed for me also. I can't seem to get mkdir to create
more than one directory at a time which is a real problem for unison, because
sometimes the file to be backed up is 5 or 6 directories deep. Does anyone
know why this could happen? I am running CentOS 4.0 with all the available
security updates applied.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
