Hi, I had named a module as "global" and it appears not to be recognized. It appears a section [global] path=xxx etc. is interpreted as global parameters and not as a module named global. Is that the expected behaviour? Any pointers as to what names are allowed for modules will be appreciated. Thanks, Selva -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The other restrictions (no slashes, no closing square brackets, spaces get compressed) are all mentioned in the rsyncd.conf manpage. I've added mention of the reserved name "global" to the manapge for the next release. ..wayne.. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
