Several things to check:

  - Is /etc/rsyncd.secrets the correct path?

  - Permission on /etc/rsyncd.secrets.  If it is o+r then it will
    be ignored.

  - Are you missing a newline at the end of your /etc/rsyncd.secrets file?
    I believe rsync ignores the last line if it ends in EOF instead
    of a newline.
    
  - Probably benign, but I'd comment out the "auth users" entry too
    until you get it to work (don't know if the hanging comma will
    cause a problem).
