If you're using SSH for a transport, you can't block rsync usage from
/etc/hosts.*, because rsync isn't hitting any ports directly, SSH is.
(You could, of course, limit what hosts people were allowed to SSH from.
But that's not really a topic for this list, that's a topic for the
SSH list.) On the other hand, if you're using rsync without the SSH
transport, in daemon mode, your OS may not know natively what "rsync"
means, in which case you'd have to specify the actual port number (873)
directly.

Hy,
I would like to know, how to wrapp rsync. I added line
rsync: IP1 in /etc/hosts.allow
rsync: ALL in /etc/hosts.deny
but it doesn't work. I can still use rsync from all machines, not yust from IP1.
thanks in advance
