Summary: add arbitrary error reporting (with --error, perhaps)
Product: rsync
Version: 2.6.8
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On occasion, it's useful for a remote host to deny rsync'ing; this is trivially
done with ssh keys that force a particular command to be given. However,
there's no easy way to correctly signal back _why_ the error failed. So, I'm
requesting something akin to
rsync --server --error "In failover mode; rsync prohibited"
where it would spew back an appropriate error code and also the given reason.
Since errcode.h doesn't have RERR_ADMINPROHIB, it might be a good thing to
create it - regardless of the decision to implement the flag --error.
