Hi, I am having one machine which i want to configure as a rsync server. Onthe machine I had kept the following file
/etc/rsyncd.conf motd file = /etc/rsyncd.motd log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid lock file = /var/run/rsync.lock [rsync-test] path = /home/xidcit/test comment = XIDC Rsync Server uid = nobody gid = nobody read only = no list = yes auth users = xidcit,rsync-user secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.scrt I am having another machine. From the 1st machine i want to copy one file test1 to the second machine. For this I am running the following command on second machine. rsync -av --rsh="ssh -l xidcit" [EMAIL PROTECTED]::rsync-test/test1 test1 Then it is asking for the password and gives the welcome message ie rsyncd.motd gives the following message . Can anybody advise me about the mistake i am doing. Thanks in advance. durga prasad [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:****** Welcome to XIDC Rsync Server rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (43 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165) -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
