Re: Rsync daemon in PASE

[BButterworth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Jim,

As I mentioned to Jack, the only config files I am using are rsyncd.conf 
and rsyncd.scrt in /etc. For those, I followed the example in the MC Press 
article. His setup is similar to examples I've seen from others running on 
other platforms. Any tips?

Thanks,
Blake

We use it all the time to sync between our servers and external content
servers.  We are at 7.1 of i5/OS. I too think you have a config issue.
