Thanks, Ken. localhost.localdomain is definitely the 127....... address we would expect

ps....  command tells me that the daemon is running

I haven't run lsof but I do know the daemon is running

So I'm still stuck  :-(


Best,



Bob

Test the connection with the regular command line rsync client. Just run "rsync localhost.localdomain::" and see what happens. (It should list the modules available to back up.) You can also use "lsof -i" to see if anything is listening on the rsyncd port. Maybe rsyncd isn't running? Could you have a firewall rule blocking that port on the loopback interface? Also try "ping localhost.localdomain" to see what address is being used.
