I've tried to use all IP for hosts allow and that does not work either. It is so strange. The Malformed address error only happens with private ip and not the INET ip.
=== Update === After further investigation, I've found eth1(private ip) uses the same gateway as eth0(INET ip). The gateway ip is an INET ip which might explain why I am getting malformed address??? > -----Original Message----- > From: Wayne Davison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, March 06, 2006 3:22 PM > To: Jonathan Chen -X (jonachen - The Armada Group, Inc. at Cisco) > Cc: rsync@lists.samba.org > Subject: Re: Malformed Address and Private IP issue > > On Mon, Mar 06, 2006 at 02:47:48PM -0800, Jonathan Chen -X > (jonachen - The Armada Group, Inc. at Cisco) wrote: > > 2006/03/06 14:28:28 [28327] malformed address localhost.localdomain > > 2006/03/06 14:28:28 [28327] malformed address dev-01.foo.com > > 2006/03/06 14:28:28 [28327] rsync denied on module testdir from > > stage-02.bar.com (10.17.44.85) > > I'd suggest upgrading to at least 2.6.6: the error messages > that a daemon logs for login failures has improved, which > should reveal exactly why the connection is failing to > authorize.
