Hi, all,
I'm rebuilding a gentoo box from a disk failure, and everything is working
(I think) except restoring its ability to act as my local rsync mirror.
I've
followed the instructions in http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/rsync.xml,
(and they worked fine, of course, before the disk crash)
but clients trying to sync with it get this error message:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~--> emerge --sync
>>> Starting rsync with rsync://192.168.1.104/gentoo-portage...
>>> Checking server timestamp ...
@ERROR: Unknown module 'gentoo-portage'
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at

The /etc/rsyncd.conf file contains:
# /etc/rsyncd.conf
# Minimal configuration file for rsync daemon
# See rsync(1) and rsyncd.conf(5) man pages for help
# This line is required by the /etc/init.d/rsyncd script
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
max connections = 5
use chroot = yes
uid = nobody
gid = nobody
# Simple example for enabling your own local rsync server
#[gentoo-portage]
path = /usr/portage
comment = Gentoo Portage
exclude = distfiles/ packages/
The system log contains only a similar "unknown module" message.
Any ideas about what's going on?
