The "requested action not supported" apparently refers to the absence
of a target to receive the file.
That certainly is not a helpful error message, is it?
To save the file by the same name in the working directory, append a " .":
rsync -tv rsync.dsbl.org::dsbl/rbldns-fresh-list.dsbl.org .
Hope that helps. Worked for me.
