Dynamic Modules in rsyncd.conf

Hi everyone, I'm experimenting a little bit with rsync and I'm using it for synching my files between a windows client (using cwRsync) and a Linux server at logon and at logoff (copying profiles is too slow for me). For this purpose I need to sync the home directory of the user that logs on/off.

Re: unable to open configuration file rsyncd.conf

Thanks Paul for the info on regarding where rsyncd.conf should be when ssh logins. I moved rsyncd.conf to the user home directory, and it looked like the transfer was going to start but then I got Segmentation Fault core dumps. So I just used root as the login and the transfer worked like a champ
