I'm running rsync 2.5.1 on solaris 7 in server mode and getting the above message when entering the following command:
rsync -vraz --delete hostname::test ./ this is my rsyncd.conf use chroot = no max connections = 25 syslog facility = local 3 read only = false log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log pid file = /var/log/rsyncd.pid lock file = /var/log/rsyncd.lock [test] path = /export/home/mrl315 comment = rsync test hosts allow = hostname secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets The rsyncd.conf and rsyncd.secrets are owned by root:other and have read and write permission only for root. I have setup an rsync server idential to this one on an ultra 10 (this one is a Sun Enterprise 250) and it works fine. Regards, Mike Lefebvre
