I am trying to use rsync to back up data on a central server. On the server I created a module for the target directory; here is the entry for it in rsyncd.conf:
[data] path = /data read only = false uid = root gid = root #auth users = nmrsu:rw, root:rw #secrets file = /etc/.rsync.stuff log file = /var/log/rsync.log On the server rsyncd is running with root permissions, and the permissions on /data are 777. Yet when I try to save data to that directory, even running rsync as root on the remote system, I get a permission denied error. If I push data from the remote host to /tmp on the server there is no problem. There is likewise no problem in pulling data from the remote host to /data on the server. Only trying to push from the remote host to the data module on the server fails. Any suggestions? Thanks, Bruce Bruce Adams [email protected] MIT Dep't. of Chemistry Instrument Facility 617-253-1812
