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" ??
xinetd has a higher listen backlog than rsyncd (3.0.7), that's all.
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.
Yes, that is possible, but the main issue is one of apparently inactive clients just hanging around clogging up the system. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (3.8°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
