By default rsync runs as the user "nobody" in the group "nobody". Debian doesn't use the group "nobody"; that group is "nogroup". So in the "[test]" section of /etc/rsyncd.conf, add a line: "gid = nogroup" Kevin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
