BTW, the "hosts allow" field needs to contain the actual list of trusted
hosts, not the name of a file holding the list.
So now I have tried the daemon again, and got a password prompt, which is better. I edited the "
host allow = *" so that it would allow all hosts. But I tried at first adding the IP Address of my local router, and it didnt work. How can I configure the "hosts allow" field correctly to allow any requests from my network. Here is the error that I got:
# rsync -zav <remote-server-ip>::realperson2 /random/file-or-directory
Password:
@ERROR: auth failed on module realperson2
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1383) [receiver=2.6.9]
I know that I had the password right, I even checked the rsync.secret file to double check. Do I have to have an actual domain name in order to give access to the daemon, or would putting in a IP Address be ok?
Computers are like air conditioners. They both dont work, if you open windows.
