Hello,
I am working on the initial implementation of rsync here and am having
trouble getting it to use the "secrets file" (not prompt for password).
I have the daemon running on the host (rsync -daemon as root), have an
/etc/rsyncd.conf file with 1 module in it, inside the module [Test] I have
"secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secure" which has username:password as the only
contents and is file mode 600 owned by root. Rsyncd.conf also has some
stadard entries in it outside the module.
When I connect up with username, using
rsync -r ./* username@hostname::Test <mailto:username@hostname::Test>
It still prompts me for the password.
I am not real comfortable with the env var (too open) and am trying to get
it to go this way.
Any ideas what I am missing here?
PS - this is Solaris to Solaris
