Yes, I read that man page quite a bit. I have written a script that uses from |
| 17 |
the command line rsync --rsh="ssh -l username" server::module/files |
| 18 |
successfully. However, changing the SYNC line in make.conf to |
| 19 |
rsync://user@host give me a connection refused. Can someone clarify the |
| 20 |
behavior difference between rsync://user@host and rsync --rsh="ssh -l |
| 21 |
username" server::? |
