Yes, you're right, it is emerge-webrsync. I mistyped
it in the email I sent but I didn't notice it till you
pointed it out now. Also, I haven't configured a
firewall on my box yet, but the way my ISP has me set
up, I'm behind a NAT box and I'm pretty sure the ISP
is behind a firewall. But, even so, this didn't stop
me from properly syncing in the initial days when I
installed Gentoo, and not much has changed from then
to now I think.
