That comment implies to me that you missed the fact that the syntax that you are trying to use does not access a persistent daemon, but fires up a single-use daemon. Pay especial attention to the part about rsync looking for the conf file in the user's home directory. I'm pretty sure that's your problem, here. Also make sure any log paths defined in the conf file are writable by the user.
