Sorry for the delay. RSYNC access is resurrected. The difference is just that plain anonymous-RSYNC is not possible because rsync(1) doesn't support both anonymous and non-anonymous in parallel. If you have registered with [EMAIL PROTECTED] you can now RSYNC again with: $ RSYNC_PASSWORD="" rsync -r -v \ rsync://[EMAIL PROTECTED]@rsync.openpkg.org/openpkg-ftp/[...] [...] Instead of the old: $ rsync://rsync.openpkg.org/openpkg-ftp/[...] [...] Please recognize that no password is required as the applied restrictions are for tracking and not for security reasons. Same applies to the FTP server: for security reasons never login with your real registered password, just use an empty one, please. You are required to just identify yourself, not to authenticate.
