Hello list, |
2 |
|
3 |
I am trying to setup a password on my local rsync portage mirror. This is |
4 |
what I have done thus far: |
5 |
|
6 |
On the server: |
7 |
1. Added "secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.users" and "auth users = portage" |
8 |
to /etc/rsyncd.conf in the appropriate places. |
9 |
2. Placed "portage:notmypassword" in /etc/rsyncd.users |
10 |
3. /etc/init.d/rsyncd restart |
11 |
|
12 |
On the client: |
13 |
1. Added RSYNC_OPTIONS="--password-file=/etc/portage/rsync.user" |
14 |
to /etc/make.conf. |
15 |
2. Modified SYNC in make.conf to include the user: |
16 |
SYNC="rsync://portage@×××××××××××.local/gentoo-portage" |
17 |
3. echo 'notmypassword' >/etc/portage/rsync.user |
18 |
|
19 |
Now, I type "emerge --sync" and I get prompted for a password (if I were to |
20 |
make a guess, it's that the variable "RSYNC_OPTIONS" is not referenced by |
21 |
portage). |
22 |
|
23 |
Am I doing something wrong, or is there another way to do this? |
24 |
|
25 |
Thanks, |
26 |
|
