But is there a point to running sudo rsync.... if the object is to
use systemctl to run the daemon? Is that for a test or permanent? Yes,
I'm confused :-) And systemctl has already been initiated.
According to the man page, --foreground should be --no-detach. That
keeps the daemon from disappearing and causes its output to appear on
the terminal. So the command would be:
sudo rsync --daemon --no-detach --verbose
The point is to observe any error messages during rsyncd startup that
would cause it to immediately exit. I think that's what's happening to
you. You start it in the background, it finds something fatal and dies.
And it's not logging it so you can't see what's killing it. Run the
daemon in the foreground from the command line to see what's killing it.
Once you get that working, we can move on to making it start from
systemd. (Which should just work once we diagnose the "crib death" of
the rsyncd process.)
