Hi All I tried to find out in the man page about what is the valid character we can use in module name in rsyncd.conf but failed. Anyone knows? Anyway, here is a bug. I defines a module with abc/def as name. $ rsync lab11-101:: abc/def this one show the module name, but when i try to use it. $ rsync vpn lab11-101::abc/def @ERROR: Unknown module 'abc' rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1383) [sender=2.6.9] Ming -- Ming Zhang @#$%^ purging memory...

Anyone knows?Well, your example of using a slash is obviously wrong, how to distinguish the module name from a filename / directory name part after it?! That's like complaining that you can't create a file called "abc/def". Paul Slootman
