Documentation is definitely not my strong suit :-) It's pretty rough, and I'm not sure that it's in the place that makes the most sense, but it's at least a start. Let me know what your thoughts are. I first checked out rsync from CVS this morning and started with rsyncd.conf.5 from that. I'm including the whole *changed* rsyncd.conf.5 - I added an EXAMPLE in the "auth users" section.
