hi rsync-list,

i have an authentication problem with my rsync-server.

@ERROR auth failed on module XXX

i`ve searched for an solution that fixes this problem
in the mailinglist archives of rsync.
but no one solves my problem.

i`m running rsync  version 2.5.6cvs  protocol version 26
on debian 3.0 with kernel 2.4.22

my rsyncd.config looks like this:

#######################################
s15523492:~# cat /etc/rsyncd.conf
max connections = 25
socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE
log file = /var/log/rsync

[foo-bar]
        uid = nobody
        gid = nogroup
        use chroot = no
        auth users = foo
        comment = Backup für foo-bar
        path = /backup/foo-bar
        read only = false
        strict modes = false
        secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.sec
        hosts allow = my.ip
########################################

my rsyncd.sec file like this:
(has chmod 400)
########################################
foo:bar
fo01:bar1
########################################


everytime when i want to connect i get this error:

@ERROR auth failed on module foo-bar


on the client machine i use the rsync that comes with cygwin
under win2k server.

anyone has an idea?

thank you.

regards,
