Speed problem

[tim.conway at philips.com]

Here's one of my setups.  It's invoked from inetd.

Tools at timsync
/home/Tools/newsync/clients/sparetool>grep rsync /etc/inetd.conf 
/etc/services  ;cat /etc/rsyncd.conf

/etc/services:rsync             873/tcp         rsyncd          # rsync 
daemon

log file = /var/tmp/rsyncd.log
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid

Here's a little script I crapped together to fire one up in any arbitrary 
site where I don't have root.  An idling rsyncd doesn't eat much cpu or 
ram.  I just reference it in the crontab for my user, and there's always 
one waiting for me.

[ -f "$pidfile" -a -s "$pidfile" ] && ps -p `cat "$pidfile"` |grep rsync

rsync --daemon --port=4024 --config=$configfile 

}</dev/null >&0 2>&1 &

There'a a lot more useful info in the man pages.  examine "--port=" and 
"--daemon", and maybe "--no-detach" in rsync(1), and read rsyncd.conf(5) 
all the way through.  You can have password authentication, exclusions, 
parameter control... lots of stuff.

Good luck.

Do I get you right ? You don't need any transport mechanism, rsync can
to everything by itself ? I thought rsh or ssh is a must. Can you give an
example how to do it ?

Thank you !
