<DIV></DIV>Okay, then you can do the following :
<DIV>- create a dedicated group "rsync"</DIV>
<DIV>- chown/chmod /bin/rsync for that group only</DIV>
<DIV>- add a setgid to your script with that group</DIV>
<DIV>- use IP control in the rsyncd.conf to restrict users</DIV>
<DIV>Thus only allowed users can access the script, and only the script can
launch rsync</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Hello,
<DIV>You could simply create a dedicated group, set up permissions to your
script, and add only the desired remote users to that group.</DIV>

all,<BR>I have an rsyncd installed on a host and I want to use it from a lot
