Greetings,
I have a cluster of Sun Netra T1's, with one of them being an rsync
server. Here is the rsyncd.con file:
[sync]
path = /etc
comment = Sync of passwd, shadow, group, and auto_home
uid = 0
gid = 1
#auth users = admin
#secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
exclude from = /exclude.lst
I had problems with the auth users, secrets file options so they are
commented out right now. However, I would like to use the rsync form
of authentication AND use ssh to sync these files up as well. Currently,
the rsync clients run this out of the root crontab:
/usr/local/bin/rsync -vz -e ssh rsync:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/sync/*
/etc
domain/hostname changed to protection the innocent :-)
After reading a few posts, it seems that I need to use the authorised_keys
file related to ssh so that it won't prompt for a pssword. This is
correct? Also, is anyone doing rsync over ssh AND required auth
users/secrets file? If so, I'd be interested in hearing about your
configuration.
Cheers,
Will Sarka
