primary = 10.28.123.232 backup = 10.28.123.230 On the "primary" server, I have edited my rsyncd.conf file to the following:
uid = 0 gid = 0 use chroot = no max connections = 4 syslog facility = local5 pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid read only = true list = false hosts allow = 10.28.123.230 [etc] path = /etc comment = system config files [web] path = /var/www comment = web files Now, from the "backup" server, I run the following command: rsync 10.28.123.232:/var/www -avz /var/www or rsync 10.28.123.232:/var/www -v /var/www And get the following errors: connect to address 10.28.123.232: Connection refused Trying krb4 rsh... connect to address 10.28.123.232: Connection refused trying normal rsh (/usr/bin/rsh) 10.28.123.232: Connection refused rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165) Does rsync log anything anywhere so that i can see what's going on, or are there any special debug commands I can use to see where I'm going wrong? Also, when I do a: rsync 10.28.123.232:: -v from the backup server, it proudces nothing - no output at all.
