all accounts on computera match computerb passwords and groups
The rsyncd.conf file is as follow
[rsync]
uid = root
gid = root
max connections = 10
syslog facility = local5
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
auth users = root
secrest file = /etc/.rs_sec
[backupshares]
path = /home/sharedfolders
the /etc/.rs_sec file is
root:therootpassword
The folders within sharedfolders are 770 and so are the files. I am using those permisions to control who has access to them via samba. on computer b I am running and getting this
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# rsync -avvvvz --recursive --password-file /etc/.rs_pass [EMAIL PROTECTED]::backupshares /home/centralbackup
opening tcp connection to 199.235.186.8 port 873

recv_file_name(folder3)
rsync: opendir "/folder3" (in backupshares) failed: Permission denied (13)
recv_file_name(folder4)
and so on and so forth all the way down
If I create a folder with contents with 777 I can back them up. But I am confused since I thought I was connecting as the root user? The .rs_pass file only contains the root password.
Any thoughts as to where I am going wrong?
