ssh and rsyncd.conf

[Jacque Mergens]

I am able to perform the following line

 

rsync -rsh="/usr/bin/ssh" filename host:/dir/filename

 

But I am not able to perform this

 

rsync -rsh="/usr/bin/ssh" filename host:module_name

 

where rsyncd.conf contains the following

 

 

pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid

log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log

read only = false

 

[module_name]

   path = /home/test

   comment = New Test

 

 

The client thinks that everything is going ok but the file never shows up in
the target directory.

 

I think that this is because it is using ssh and never reads the rsyncd.conf
file.  I've shut down the rsync -daemon process and 

proved this.  

 

Now the question.

 

How do I get rsync to transfer the files using the rules called out in the
rsyncd.conf file while using ssh?
