First, RSYNC_PROXY (and since it's in the environment it's all caps) only specifies a rsync server to proxy with. However, rsync_proxy connections only work on port 873. Otherwise, rsync will use rsh/ssh to grab it's data. Now both of those work on port 22. It just dawned on me that in a previous e-mail you mentioned that you only had ports 21 and 80 open. Well, there's your problem--you only have ftp and http open on your firewall. You'll need to either open up port 22 (ssh/rsh) or put in some stateful rules to keep an outgoing connection open. Hope this helps... --Jerry name: Jerry Alexandratos || Open-Source software isn't a phone: 703.599.6023 || matter of life or death... email: jerry@thehutt.org || ...It's much more important || than that!
