rsyncd.conf

# 
# A sample rsyncd.conf file usable with BackupPC. This file does not
# completely document all of the settings for rsyncd.conf - see the
# man page that comes with the rsync ditribution for a comprehensive
# overview off all available settings.
#

#
# Allow rsync to change the root directory to the module location
# upon connection of a client. This is disabled for Win32 as we do
# not provide a full Cygwin environment.
#
# Warning: with a setting of "false", absolute symlinks will be
# stripped of their leading "/".  See "use chroot" in the rsyncd.conf
# man page.  This is relevant for machines that support symlinks
# (WinXX machines do not).
#
use chroot = false

#
# Limit the simultaneous rsync connections to 4. Changing
# this to '1' should be sufficient for BackupPC.
#
max connections = 2

#
# Uncomment this line and change the path if
# you would like to log rsync messages.

#  Not good to have if your system is not cleanly shut down each time.

# The locations of the rsync lock file

# This is where we define the rsyncd modules. Add as many directories or
# files are you wish.

# Example of how to share the entire C: drive.  For BackupPC "cDrive"
# is the share name (ie: the value of $Conf{RsyncShareName} on the
