I think I see some of your problems. First, RSYNC_PROXY (and since it's |
15 |
in the environment it's all caps) only specifies a rsync server to proxy |
16 |
with. However, rsync_proxy connections only work on port 873. |
17 |
|
18 |
Otherwise, rsync will use rsh/ssh to grab it's data. Now both of those |
19 |
work on port 22. |

It just dawned on me that in a previous e-mail you mentioned that you |
22 |
only had ports 21 and 80 open. Well, there's your problem--you only |
23 |
have ftp and http open on your firewall. You'll need to either open up |
24 |
port 22 (ssh/rsh) or put in some stateful rules to keep an outgoing |
25 |
connection open. |

Hope this helps... |
