Hi,
please avoid top posting.
It needs "reconstruction" to see the history.

We have a very high utilization rsync server. We can handle large
number of connections at a time, but would like to limit to one
connection per client. we don't want multiple connections from the
same client. Is that possible?
With the help of xinetd.
Example:
ftp5:2 22:39:02 ~ # cat /etc/xinetd.d/rsync
# default: off
# description: rsync file transfer daemon
service rsync
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/rsyncd
instances = 999
per_source = 19
server_args = --daemon
# disable = yes
}
ftp5:2 22:39:03 ~ #
Thanks for the quick response. Can you please explain how this would
work? I am not very familiar with xinet.d, and I don't see a rsync
file in the /etc/xinetd.d/ dir.
You just do not start rsyncd autonomously during boot, but "only"
xinetd.
xinetd will handle all incoming connections for which a configuration file
in /etc/xinetd.d/ exists. So your rsyncd gets started by xinetd, and
xinetd will obey f.e. instances and per_source before starting a next
rsyncd instance.
