Starting with 2.6.3 rsync began to use the include/exclude rules to limit what could be uploaded to the server as well as what could be downloaded. It would seem that this upload limit allows the "." dir at the root of the transfer to be excluded (which it should not do, but has done since 2.6.3). So, your exclusion of "*" is causing the starting directory to be dropped, and nothing can be transferred. An easy fix is to add "include = /." to that module in your rsyncd.conf file, and uploads should start to work again. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
