Alexander,
I considered that possibility because I am behind various proxies and
firewalls,  so I ran the following rsync command which tries to 
retrieve a copy of the rsync source code from samba.org.

rsync -av --exclude=.git/ rsync://rsync.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/rsync
/dest/dir/

This works fine and successfully retrieves the rsync source code.  So
apparently rsync in general is not blocked.  So what is special about
fink's rsync site?
