Hi Hardy: Nice catch - I missed that one when I reviewed the man page. Unfortunately it made no difference. I have also tried moving the module params from the global section to the module section but that also made no difference - exactly same messages.
Just to keep things straight, here is my latest rsyncd.conf: <----------------------------------------------------------------- # # Global parameters: # #motd file = /var/rsync/rsyncd.motd log file = /var/rsync/rsyncd.log pid file = /var/rsync/rsyncd.pid #syslog facility= daemon #socket options = # # Default values for module paramaters: # #use chroot = no #max connections = 0 #lock file = /var/rsync/rsyncd.lock #read only = no #list = yes #uid = 300 #gid = 200 #hosts allow = fisdev pgiprd #auth users = root hugh # # Module "BAK": # [bak] comment = Default remote backup repository path = /bak read only = no uid = 300 gid = 200 hosts allow = fisdev pgiprd auth users = root hugh -----------------------------------------------------------------> Thanks for all your help.
