Hi,
I had a look at ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/ and found following RPMs for rsync
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/rsync-2.6.8-3.1.src.rpm ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/rsync-3.0.6-4.el5.src.rpm ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/rsync-3.0.6-4.el5_7.1.src.rpm
http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.6/os/SRPMS/ has http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.6/os/SRPMS/rsync-2.6.8-3.1.src.rpm
http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.6/updates/SRPMS/ has no rpms for rsync
Am I severely misguided in assuming that rsync-3.0.6-4.el5 and rsync-3.0.6-4.el5_7.1 should exist in CentOS 5 ?
