Hello --
I'm trying to evaluate rsync for doing web site publishing, and can't get
basic inter-machine synchinh working. I keep getting a "permission denied"
error. I thought this was probably a newbie question, probably config
related, but I've scoured the mailing lists and it seems that most posts
about this message haven't been answered. Is this an unusual error? Can
someone suggest how to debug it?
I've verified that I can rsh to the target machine, that both the target
directory (/tmp) is world-writable, and that the source directory (/tmp) and
files are world-readable. I've appended a log that demonstrates that I can
rsh fine by hand, but it fails when I do it with rsync.
I'm using version 2.4.6, "protocol version 24", running SunOS 5.7. As per
the instructions, I have installed rsync on both machines, but there are no
daemons or such running.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
