           Summary: Error when using rsync: as protocol prefix and :: as
                    module separator
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.7
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: bugs.samba.org at hacking.co.uk
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


When attempting to use rsync with a URL such as that shown below which uses
"rsync:" as a protocol prefix and "::" as a module separator the error shown
beneath is produced:

rsync -a rsync://rsync.mad-hacking.net::hacking-gentoo-overlay ~/test/

ssh: Could not resolve hostname rsync: Name or service not known

Using the "/" as a module separator, or omitting the rsync: protocol prefix, as
shown below, works normally.

rsync -a rsync://rsync.mad-hacking.net/hacking-gentoo-overlay/ ~/test/
rsync -a rsync.mad-hacking.net::hacking-gentoo-overlay ~/test/
