[Patch] rsync-2.6.2: Allow 'port = N' in rsyncd.conf

[Demian M. Nave]

Hi,

If anyone is interested, the included patch to rsync-2.6.2 allows you to 
specify the port number for an rsync server as a global option in 
rsyncd.conf with 'port = <N>' (where <N> is your favorite port number).

Note that this parameter only takes effect when the server is started, not 
when clients connect.  Also, specifying the port in rsyncd.conf takes 
precedence over --port on the command line, which seems to match the 
precedence of other server parameters.

Cheers,
Demian
