Thanks Mark, I tried it, but I got the error:
./rsync: error in loading shared libraries: libresolv.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
when I try to run it.
For the record (and others with failing memory like mine):
The linux version on the empeg is debian potato. If you get such error, it is because the application is missing a library. Make a search in google for "name_of_the_missing_library" (in my case, libresolv.so.2) and add "potato deb" to your search. This should tell you which package contains the missing file. In my case, it's libc6_2.1.3-20.deb. Now, get the package: Go to
potato archive and find the package. In my case, it was in "Base" category. Extract the package using ar:
then extract the resulting data.tar.gz using
. In the extracted files, you should find the library. For me, the file "/lib/libresolv-2.1.3.so" was in /lib. You can notice there's a symlink (/lib/libresolv.so.2) pointing to that library. After transferring the library to the empeg via ftp, you have to recreate the symlink there too with ln -s libresolv-2.1.3.so libresolv.so.2.
There you have successfully installed the missing library on the empeg.
