The simplest solution is to not have the rsyncd demand that clients
display the motd. motd is not considered part of verbosity, so the only
way to shut it off on the client side is to have the client shut all the
way up.

motd file
The "motd file" option allows you to specify a "message of
the
day" to display to clients on each connect. This usually
con-
tains site information and any legal notices. The default is
no
motd file.

Short of that, I'm stumped.

Is there a way to make the rsync client suppress the motd without
suppressing other messages when connecting to an rsync server? What I
want is to run rsync from cron and have it produce output only when
any files have been downloaded or deleted and whenever errors have
happened. Otherwise, I want it to be quiet. This doesn't seem to be
possible with rsync as of version 2.5.7.
When I use the -v option, the motd and file transfers are printed.
With either -q or -vq, nothing is printed. When I don't use any of
those options, then motd is printed but file transfer is not reported.
There doesn't seem to exist an option for reporting file transfers
only, or is there something I am missing?
