in the server config file, I tried
secrets file = /app/rsync/config/secret
auth users = iwmaster
where 'cat /app/rsync/config/secret'
iwmaster:mah

on the client I try:
/app/rsync/bin/rsync /tmp/mahesh/test webtest::cSend/tmp/mahesh/test
Password: mah
@ERROR: auth failed on module cSend

or:
/app/rsync/bin/rsync /tmp/mahesh/test
iwmaster@webtest::cSend/tmp/mahesh/test
Password: mah
@ERROR: auth failed on module cSend

shouldn't I get prompted for a username and password, not just a password?
It doesn't work when I use iwmaster@host anyway.  what is wrong with the
password?
Is the USER environment variable passed in the rsync:// protocol?
Are there known issues with authentication in client-server mode which is
causing this to fail, or did I just do something stupid??

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,

Henry Wrieth
