Hi, I've having some difficulty using rsync from a client to a rsyncd Server (RedHat 7.2). Although the same command works fine on the server. I can view the list from client using - rsync i1:: Using the following cmd to connect from client (i2) to rsyncd server (i1): rsync -trlvz i1::i1-test /home/test /var/log/message file on i1 shows the following error: May 11 10:40:39 i1 rsyncd[23271]: reverse name lookup failed May 11 10:40:39 i1 rsyncd[23271]: forward name lookup failed May 11 10:41:08 i1 rsyncd[23273]: reverse name lookup failed May 11 10:41:08 i1 rsyncd[23273]: forward name lookup failed May 11 10:46:19 i1 rsyncd[23307]: reverse name lookup failed May 11 10:46:19 i1 rsyncd[23307]: forward name lookup failed May 11 10:46:42 i1 rsyncd[23316]: reverse name lookup failed May 11 10:46:42 i1 rsyncd[23316]: forward name lookup failed The above command runs successfully from i1. Here a copy of the /etc/rsyncd.conf file on i1. max connections = 10 syslog facility = local3 uid = nobody gid = nobody use chroot = no pid file = /var/run/rsync.pid [i1-www] comment = i1 www path = /var/www/html read only = yes list = yes hosts allow = 10.1.1.47 127.0.0.1 Any help is greatly appreciated.
