Thanks for a great thread! Not as clean as I hoped, but I got things working. I would have had no luck without this thread. I did have one snag. When I used this in my go file I had problems. # Start Rsync installpkg /boot/packages/rsync/rsync-2.6.6-i486-1.tgz /boot/packages/rsync/rc.d/S20-init.rsyncd The Error: line 10: syntax error: unexpected end of file. This is what my S20-init.rysncd file looks like: if ! grep ^rsync /etc/inetd.conf > /dev/null ; then cat <<-EOF >> /etc/inetd.conf rsync stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/bin/rsync --daemon EOF read PID < /var/run/inetd.pid kill -1 ${PID} fi cp /boot/packages/rsync/rsyncd.conf /etc/rsyncd.conf If I add #!/bin/bash at the beginning I get "Bad interpreter" as the error. I changed my GO to the following and everything seems to work. I found the info here: http://lime-technology.com/wordpress/?page_id=34 installpkg /boot/packages/rsync/rsync-2.6.6-i486-1.tgz rsync --daemon --config=/boot/packages/rsync/rsyncd.conf I'm not sure if I've crippled things or not, but the various steps provided in this post got me to the point where testing and now backing up was something I could do.
