I reviewed the files and they all appeared to be there, although I didn't look for hidden files. I tried again using rsync -arv to copy the files. After I did this it occured to me that I hadn't shut down the daemon before copying the files and that I probably didn't do that the first time either. I shut it down and ran rsync again. Rsync indicated that there were a couple files that had changed since the first run. I started the daemon and everything worked fine. Is anyone working on additional documentation such as a "HowTo", FAQ, or more detailed setup instructions for getting started? The manual appears to do a good job of covering the technical aspects of the program, but it assumes the user has substantial previous knowledge of how to use those features (which I don't). I don't have the knowledge or the time to write something from scratch, but if there are any ongoing documentation projects I'd be willing to help with editing and do some "does this say what I meant to say" kind of reviewing. Let me know if I can help.
