I have configured my rcyncd.conf file and it is stored in /etc.
Whne I type in the command rsync --daemon, nothing happens.
Whats wrong? I type in netstat to see if I can see port 873 being used but there is nothing. Here is my conf file


log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log

[home]
   path = /vmfs/Storage
   comment = My Home Area
   list = yes
   read only = no

I am new to linux and rsync. Using latest version of Rsync in a vmware server which uses redhat 7.2 I believe

Try manually specifying the location of rsyncd.conf on your command line, ie rsync --config=/etc/rsyncd.conf --daemon. It's probably looking for it someplace where you didn't put it, and when it can't find an rsyncd.conf, it silently exits.
