If a host is running NIS (passwd file ends in +::0:0:::) authentication, will dovecot be able to authenticate with auth_userdb = passwd directly and automagically or do you have to do a ypcat passwd > pwfile periodically to generate a passwd file that dovecot can use? ?

...In all cases, both sides seem to be waiting in select(). If I set a timeout, then both sides log it and exit. If I just Ctrl-C the client side, then the server never quits. (Weird, eh? Shouldn't it get an EOF from the socket?). The command line I'm using is rsync -vvv --password-file ../pwfile rsync://user@host.mydom.tld/modname/* . If I write a loop to rsync the files one-at-a-time by name, it works just fine. If I do the full sync from a client on the same 100Mb LAN as the server, it works just fine.
