--list-only (or no target specified) are the only listings without transferring that rsync supports. The restriction would not apply to the list of modules (IIRC there is another option for that). On 09/06/2017 04:00 AM, Pavel Kasparek via rsync wrote: > Hello all, > > when the "write only = yes

Hi! I am doing backups from a number of machines to an rsync server. For some time I was trying to come up with a solution, which would prevent users from peeking at each other's files, which are backed up. Finally, I've hacked rsync, introducing a new option "write only" for rsyncd.conf. When se
