Please Help me.

opening connection using: ssh sectdr01 -l root rsync --server -vvvvve.sf . /home/testrsync/
note: iconv_open("HP-ROMAN8", "HP-ROMAN8") succeeded.

Thank you.

The key seems to be this part of the output:

sh: rsync:  not found.

Is rsync installed on the remote system? Does the symlink /usr/bin/rsync exist on the remote server?

[Matti_Kurkela · Accepted solution]

From the error messages, I think the rsync command is not in PATH for non-interactive logins on sectdr01.

When rsync uses SSH to establish a connection to sectdr01, it tells sshd to run the rsync command directly, without invoking a shell first. As a result, /etc/profile won't be run, and so the PATH variable won't be set according to /etc/PATH file. You will be left with the very rudimentary factory-default path assigned by sshd.

You can verify it like this:

clsmdb02:/ # ssh root@sectdr01 printenv PATH
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/ssh/bin

clsmdb02:/ # ssh root@sectdr01
sectdr01:/ # printenv PATH
<a much longer list of directories, as listed in /etc/PATH>

As a workaround, you might make a symbolic link on sectdr01 to make the rsync command available to non-interactive sessions:

ln -s /usr/local/bin/rsync /usr/bin/rsync

Thank you. For all the suggestions. Now, I follow it.

On host it has rsync program.But not have link to /usr/bin/rsync. I follow them .
