I can rsync files with that user, so it's there and it works. I changed the
server name in the weewx.conf file and restarted weewx.
One mention of rsync at all in the logs (jounalctl -b -e, is there another
place to look?):
DEBUG weewx.reportengine: Found configuration file
/etc/weewx/skins/Rsync/skin.conf for report 'RSYNC'
rsync is enabled (output from weectl report list):
