I've read a number of howto for using rsync --daemon option in a ubuntu installation. Most call for intd or xintd, however a default ubuntu install does not come with these. Many of these howto are older, so I'm wondering it the method of lauching rsync with the --daemo option has changed as well? -- Bruce Harding, Member: IEEE, SPIE, IACR Manager, Computer Books for Less 210 Bank St. Ottawa ON K2P 1W2 Phone: 613-233-7357 Fax: 613-233-6823
