rsyncd

[ajeffco]

Hi All,

I've searched the forums and google for this already, and haven't found anything useful. I'm trying to find an rsyncd rpm package for fedora. I tried using yum, but it just comes back with rsync, and no rsyncd.

Does anyone know if this exists? If so great, if not, I'll just compile it from source, but I thought it might be better to go with an existing RPM.

The goal is to set up an existing FC2 server as an rsync server.

Thanks,

Al

Isn't rsyncd just the daemon for rsync? Therefore don't you just need to install rsync?

Anyways here is a link that might help...

$ apropos rsync
rsync (1) - faster, flexible replacement for rcp
rsyncd.conf [rsyncd] (5) - configuration file for rsync server
$ man rsyncd.conf
...
DESCRIPTION
The rsyncd.conf file is the runtime configuration file for rsync when
run as an rsync server.

rysnc is a command-line tool, a server, and a client - it all depends on how it's invoked.

Duh... I've used rsync before, but the server peice was installed seperately as rsyncd.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
