When rsyncing with a remote rsync daemon using the following script:
# This script is called daily from cron to mirror the overnight backups
# to file server
# The full paths of the programs used in this script
rsync=/usr/bin/rsync
mount=/bin/mount
umount=/bin/umount
# Good rsync options for backups.
rsync_opts="-av"
# The name of the file containing the rsync
# connection password
password="--password-file=/etc/.rs_pass"
# Mirror the contents of /root/backup
# folder to Mars:/venus/mirror. Dump
# any
# output and error messages to
# /var/rsync/Venus
$rsync $rsync_opts $password /root/backup/ \
file_server::mirror > /var/rsync/backup_server
the it fails with the following error:
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4092 bytes: phase
"send_file_entry" [sender]: Broken pipe (32) ERROR: module is read only rsync
error:
syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(555) rsync: connection unexpectedly
closed (4 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol
data stream (code 12) at io.c(359)
I use a similar script to perform daily back-ups which works fine

Clive
