I think you are thinking too much of rsync here. Rsync groups are the same as users they just have an @ in front of the name. If you want UNIX style users and groups then use rsync over ssh and get the bonus of ssh's authentication as well as not needing an rsyncd.conf file at all.

Hello everybody!

I'm trying to configure rsync-server, but still I can't figure out how to manage users and groups.

I read in the documentation that I could use both, but there is nothing about how to add a user into a particular group...

Why am I doing this?
1. I have about 10 modules, which are different and must be available for some users and not available for other users. 2. There are many users, new users are arriving, some old users are going out, so it would be easier to assign group permissions to the modules and then manage just user-group relations, but I couldn't find that in documentation, nor examples on the internet...

Could anybody please give me a hint or a clue about how to assign a user to a particular group? I'm sure that this should work, but I can't find it out myself :(

Thank you very much.
