I can rsync from host A to B but not from B to A.

[John E. Goetz]

Getting the following error:

ksh: rsync: cannot execute

Hello,

Your rsync command is not executable, or
is protected in some way (for example, only root can run it, or some strange ACL was applied).

Check the PATH variable and see which
rsync you are actually invoking. Then,
check its permissions:

ls -als /pathdir/rsync

Depending on how rsync was put together, it assumes where the remote rsync is located. Try adding --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync or whatever the remote path might be.
