I figured out the ssh error. Although I am still unable to connect to the remote host with the rsync daemon. Here is the error that I am getting again:
# rsync -zav --progress root@<remote-server-ip>::realperson /random/file-or-directory rsync: failed to connect to <remote-server-ip>: Connection timed out (110) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(104) [receiver=2.6.9] I have set up the daemon on the remote machine and I have ran "rsync --daemon" to start up the daemon server. I also have enabled the rsync server on the firewall. I also want to restate that I am reconfiguring rsync on a previously new installed system, and the ssh errors are fixed. What am I still missing? ----- Computers are like air conditioners.
