Hi

I'd like to setup rsync without enter a password beetwen 2 debian server to synchronize some directories.
Passwordless SSH is 1 solution, second will be keychain, but how it works using /etc/rsyncd.secrets?

nothing to do with networking. Moved to Linux - Newbie.

Code:

man rsyncd.conf

explains it all. Other useful details in the official rsync documentation. In particular you can take a look at Michael Holve's tutorial.

Thx it's a nice dokumentation, but cannot find about /etc/rsyncd.secrets,
specially in Michael Holve's tutorial.

BTW:

Code:

# man rsyncd.conf
No manual entry for rsyncd.conf

Online manual page: http://www.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsyncd.conf.html

Regarding the Mike Holve's tutorial look at the section "Setting up a Server". To find it immediately you can look for the term "secrets" using the Find facility of your web browser.
