rsync - May 2002 - rsync: network "bind interfaces only" command for rsync?

Hi,

Is there a network interface listen command for rsync
so that for a system with multiple network cards and
multiple IP addresses - rsync will only be visible
on a defined interface and defined IPs?

Like in samba?:

e.g.,

  bind interfaces only = True
    interfaces = eth0 193.xy.zz.aa  193.xy.zz.ab

Can't seem to find such a thing in the documentation.

Cheers,

Lachlan.

Might the --address= option below, in conjunction with your IP filtering, 
do what you want?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
     --address
          By default rsync will bind to the wildcard address when
          run  as  a daemon with the --daemon option or when con-
          necting to a rsync server. The --address option  allows
          you  to  specify a specific IP address (or hostname) to
          bind to. This makes virtual hosting  possible  in  con-
          junction with the --config option.

Thanks - I was looking in the rsyncd.conf info files instead of the
startup options files.

Based on local scanning using "nmap" (permission obtained from sys 
admin to have this on my systems so I don't get arrested as a hacker), 
this seems to work well.
