-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! I'm sorry to announce that the rsync service on sentinix.org has been disabled becuase of abuse (and lack of options for rsync --daemon). Even legitimate users end up nearly DoSing the box. :-\ The problem is that rsync eats extremely much harddisk IO + CPU when doing incremental syncing... and it appears to be impossible to shut off without patching rsync (if you know how, *please* let me know!, yes I have tried - --daemon -Wu, no luck).
