I had the wrong path in conf file.

Thanks. I found right after I sent the mail.

| Three things:
|    Does the system support chroot?
|    Is the rsyncd running as root?
|    Is the path correctly specified in the rsyncd.conf?
| I can't think of anything else I've run into or read of, to cause that problem.
| If it's not number three, try running it as root.  If that fails, try adding
| use chroot = no
| to your rsyncd.conf.
