i missed the first part of this thread, but here's an example of one of my "shares":
Basically, the first part of the thread asked how to configure rsyncd.conf so it will back up /home/jtower/pr0n and /var/log without pulling in all of /home and /var.
One interesting difference between the two methods: - using rsync/rsyncd, the list of files to back up is on the client. - using rsync/ssh, the list of files to back up is on the server.
