--- Comment #6 from Kevin Korb <rs...@sanitarium.net> ---
There was a change made in 3.1.0...
- Added a way for more than one group to be specified in the daemon's
config file, including a way to specify that you want all of the
specified user's groups without having to name them. Also changed the
daemon to complain about an inability to set explicitly-specified uid/gid
values, even when not run by a super-user.
So, even if a user is in more than one group once you set the gid option the
listed groups are all that user gets to be in now.
I am not sure if the lack of permission setting is a bug or an rsyncd feature
and I don't know if it is still the case in the current version. I don't
really feel like setting up a test case to find out. IMO if you are running
rsyncd without read only = yes and/or withe authentication you are mis-using
rsyncd. If you want these things use rsync over ssh where you have decent
authentication+security.
