[root@www ~]#
[root@www ~]# chkconfig xinetd on mkdir /home/backup
[root@www ~]#
vi /etc/rsyncd.conf # any name you like [backupdir] # destination directory for copy path = /home/backup # hosts you allow to access hosts allow = 10.0.0.30 hosts deny = * list = true uid = root gid = root read only = false |
