I've tested 2.6.3 under a debian sarge setup using a linux 2.6.8.1 kernel. The only changes I made in your test case were to use inetd instead of xinetd, and to use "nogroup" instead of "nobody" for the group (which is a known difference between debian and fedora). I couldn't get rsync to fail. So, you should first check for messages from rsyncd in your syslog to see if rsync is exiting with an error or dying. You migh also try running the rsync daemon without using xinetd (just run rsync --daemon on its own with the xinetd setup turned off). If rsync is crashing, you should enable core dumps (either "rsync --daemon" from a shell where you have typed "ulimit -c unlimted", or put that command into a script that runs "rsync --daemon" and run that script from xinetd). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
