Rsync does not need UDP, it just needs a server to be running.  You
probably forgot to start one up.

 Does rsync work over NAT OK?

Sure -- if the behind-the-NAT host is going to need to accept incoming
connections, you just need to direct the rsync port to the right host in
your firewall's rules.

Does rsync need UDP ports open?

2005-01-26 Thread Reuben Pearse
Hi all,
I'm trying to connect across the internet to an rsync server (cwrsync 
running on WinXP) from a Linux box. I have opened up the TCP port 873 on 
the remote firewall and opened a hole in the Windows firewall, but I am 
still getting the error:

rsync: failed to connect to 217.64.121.18: Connection refused
Does rsync use UDP as well?
