Do you mean 'requires', as in 'do work that alternatives might not require and so places a greater load on the system" or do you mean "offers more options and flexibility" ??
Afaict, xinetd is not part of the problem. xinetd just forks rsyncd for every new connection, and I would expect rsyncd to deny clients matching my "hosts deny" setting from rsyncd.conf.
I'm leaning to the belief that Xinetd *is* the problem becuase it is Xinetd that sees the connection information and should be handling the allow/deny, and that the relevant information is lost by the time rsyncd gets the connection. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
