You didn't supply enough information to know for sure, but it might be
that you're using a remote-shell syntax instead of a daemon-mode syntax.
If not, check the log file that the rsync daemon is using (which is
presumably /var/adm/rsyncd.log) to see what info gets logged about each
connection.  Also, check to see if some existing rsync daemon is already
running using a different config file (check ps).
