rsync - Feb 2005 - rsyncd.conf is not created although successful installation of rsync on debian but

Hi All,
I have installed rysnc-2.6.3 on my debian linux (
2.2.20-idepci #1 Sat Apr 20 12:45:19 EST 2002 i686).
While configuration it was 
successful and i installed it without any error.
Now, in default installation it should create
rsyncd.conf as detault configuration file.. but it has
not been created anywhere in system.
 
root@jike:/tmp/temp/rsync-2.6.3# which rsync
/usr/local/bin/rsync
In config log also i have got successful message as
 
configure:11413: result:     *   As of v2.6.0, the
default remote shell is ssh instead of rsh!!   *
configure:11415: result:     *   To use previous
default of rsh:   ./configure --with-rsh=rsh     *
configure:11417: result:    
**********************************************************************
configure:11421: result:
configure:11423: result:     rsync 2.6.3 configuration
successful
configure:11425: result:
root
Please let me know how to create configuration file
and what could be reason that ?
 
 
Thanks and Regards
Alok B.

No, it shouldn't create rsyncd.conf as detault configuration file.

If you want an rsyncd.conf, there's an example in
/usr/share/doc/rsync/examples/rsyncd.conf .

Ah, you're building your own rsync. (Why?)

Read the doc for rsyncd.conf and create it yourself by hand, it's
impossible to create an rsyncd.conf file that does what you want.
