Hi folks, I have a win2k acting as rsync client (I installed cwrsync) and
FreeBSD 5.4 acting as rsync server and I'm having trouble with basic
usage.
------------------------------
My /etc/rsyncd.conf:
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
lock file = /var/run/rsync.lock
[antec_win2k_mike]
path = /vol3/antec_win2k_mike
uid = nobody
gid = nobody
read only = no
list = yes
auth users = mmat
secrets file = /etc/rsync/rsyncd.secrets
------------------------------
/etc/rsync/rsyncd.secrets:
------------------------------
mmat:password1
------------------------------
I have a local user 'mike' on the server with password 'password2'.
When I run this command I get my files dumped into the user's home
directory, /home/mike/antec_win2k_mike (this antec directory is created):
C:\rsync.exe /cygdrive/d/mike/* mike at servername:antec_win2k_mike
I am prompted for the server user's password 'password2' but not the
module password 'password1'. So it's like the configuration file is not
being read.
I am starting rsync on the server like this:
# rsync --daemon --config=/etc/rsyncd.conf
What should I do here? Anyone?
