Re: @ERROR: chroot failed

2001-10-10 Thread tim . conway

Three things:
   Does the system support chroot?
   Is the rsyncd running as root?
   Is the path correctly specified in the rsyncd.conf?
I can't think of anything else I've run into or read of, to cause that problem.
If it's not number three, try running it as root.  If that fails, try adding
use chroot = no
to your rsyncd.conf.

Why would I be getting this on a box? I have the same permissions on
many other directories. Using verbose mode shows nothing more then the
error in the Subject line.

Any help is appreciated.

That error is coming from an rsync daemon server.  Are you administering
that side?  If so, what does the rsyncd.conf look like?  Most likely it is
either
a) it's run as root but there's no uid = root
b) it's not run as root and there's no use chroot = no

I had the wrong path in conf file.

Thanks. I found right after I sent the mail.
