Rsync over SSH w/ various shells

[Tom Allen]

I'm using Rsync 2.5.7, using an ssh key to connect, which has a forced 
command of:

/usr/bin/nice -n 19 /usr/bin/rsync --server --daemon --config 
/etc/rsyncd.conf .

The conf itself looks like:

uid = nobody
gid = nobody
use chroot = no
max connections = 1
syslog facility = local5
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
[slash]
       list = no
       path = /
       read only = yes
       hosts allow = xx.xx.xx.xx
       use chroot = yes
       max connections = 1
       exclude = /vol/ /proc/
       uid = root
       gid = root
When hosts allow is set to the ip of the box pulling the rsync.  When I 
run rsync, and the shell for the user with the authorized_keys2 file is 
set to ash, zsh, or bash1, the ip that the rsync daemon sees is the 
actual IP.  With bash2, its 0.0.0.0.  Why does the shell matter like 
that?  It seems (to me anyway) that bash2 is doing something evil.  
Thanks in advance for any info.

Tom
