Malformed Address and Private IP issue

[Jonathan Chen -X (jonachen - The Armada Group, Inc. at Cisco)]

How important is it to type "make install" when I don't wish for the
compiled program install into its default location.  I only want it to
be in in the compiled directory and read rsyncd.conf file.

So when I ran 2.6.6 under "sudo ./rsync --daemon
--config=/etc/rsyncd.conf" under RHEL 3, I basically get the same error
message.

I got rid of "hosts allow =" line  and I still get "malformed address"
in the rsync.log file.   Then a deny of connection from X private
address.


sudo ./rsync -e ssh --archive --sparse --compress --update --progress
--stats -vv --dry-run jonachen at dev1::testdir  .

opening connection using --server --sender -vvunlogDtprSz . testdir 
@ERROR: access denied to testdir from stage02.foo.com (10.10.10.11)
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at
main.c(1171)
