@ERROR: auth failed on module

Hi,
My nightly rsync jobs recently began to fail. I don't recall making any modifications to the rsync config files or upgrading rsync. Below is the error I receive when I try to rsync the home directory of serverA to serverB. Is there anything obviously wrong? Thanks.

serverA rsync # rsync -arczv --delete --password-file=/etc/rsync/rsync.password /home 192.168.1.4::home
@ERROR: auth failed on module home
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (88 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(189)
