When ssh is used, sshd receives the connection, and rsync remote executes rsync on the server, using permissions it recieved via ssh. > Plus, `hosts access' doesn't work in my /etc/rsyncd.conf and using > rsync as a daemon through inetd or xinetd doesn't even let me make a > connection. > > It's like it's not reading /etc/rsyncd.conf -- I just don't get it. It isn't. When using ssh, just handle access in the same way you'd normally handle ssh access. -drew -- M.
