I am moving from an anonymous rsync setup to a password protected rsync setup. I have my module involved in the test configured to auth only for one user. The secrets file is working just fine for I have tested it. Before I decided to go with a password protected setup, I had a script that cron ran every night at 2 am. worked like a charm. I added the --password-file=/etc/rsyncd.secrets argument to the script and it says "AUTH FAILED FOR MODULE XXX". So I ran the command without that argument and it prompted me for a password. I gave the password that is in the secrets file and it proceeded. I can post the config files if it would help.
Secrets file is readable only by root I am on the client, connecting to the rsync server running in --daemon mode. -- Clint Boggio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hogan Hardwoods & Moulding -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
