You could try installing it in parallel (i.e. grab the /usr/bin/rsync binary out of the .deb and stick that as /usr/bin/rsync-3.0), and let it listen on a different port number. > > There isn't some inetd-type thing that wraps accesses to the rsync > > daemon, that may be screwing things up? > > Well, it is running out of xinetd, but that doesn't change between 2.6.9 > and 3.0.3.
