rsync - Nov 2006 - mail rsync logs

Hi all,
I have a rsync daemon and I'd like my users to get a mail with the content
of
the log so they can see what was backed up or if something failed.

I separated the logs per user via the syslog and I use "post-xfer
exec" to
execute a script that will search for the last PIDs for rsync like so:

id1=`ps -ef | grep "rsync --daemon" | tail -n 1 | awk '{print
$2}'`
id2=`expr $id1 \+ 1`

from there, my script does the rest, but if I have more than one client,
it's
doomed to fail.

There must be a simpler way to do that than what I am doing now.  Did I miss a 
chapter in the man pages?

Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks
 -Ed

In 2.6.9 you can consult the RSYNC_PID environment variable in the
post-xfer exec script and search for that value in the rsync log file
(assuming that you include %p in the log-file lines).
