 /A and /B are partitions on two different disks

>Description:

I am trying to duplicate a directory using rdist:

file /root/.rhosts contains 'localhost root' (without the quotes)
rdist -c /A localhost:/B
/A/bin/emacs is a link to /A/bin/emacs-19.34

I get:

updating host localhost
installing: /A/bin/emacs
rdist: xp11.frmug.org:can't link /B/bin/emacs to /A/bin/emacs-19.34
	shouldn't this be /B/bin/emacs-19.34?    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And after each run:

Segmentation fault

I'm not able to get a core dump even with 'coredumpsize    unlimited'.

>How-To-Repeat:

	

>Fix:
	
We maybe should import rdist-6.1.3 from usc.edu which is working fine is this
area. I just did:
  cp mf.freebsd2 mf.freebsd3
  cp os-freebsd2.h os-freebsd3.h

then update some paths then make.
