- - The new option --keep-dirlinks (-K) allows you to symlink a directory
- onto another patition on the receiving side and have rsync treat it
- as matching a normal directory from the sender.
-
- - Added the "write only" option to the daemon's config file.
-
- - Added long-option names for -4 and -6 (namely --ipv4 and --ipv6)
- and documented all these options in the man page.
-
- - Improved the handling of the --bwlimit option so that it's less
- bursty, more accurate, and works properly over a larger range of
- values.
-
- - The rsync daemon-over-ssh code now looks for SSH_CONNECTION and
- SSH2_CLIENT in addition to SSH_CLIENT to figure out the IP address.
-
- - Added the --checksum-seed=N option for advanced users.
-
- INTERNAL:
-
- - Some cleanup in the exclude code has saved some per-exclude memory
- and made the code easier to maintain.
-
- - Use rsyserr() in the various places that were still calling
- rprintf() with strerror() as an arg.
+ - In daemon mode, if rsync fails to bind to the requested port, the
+ error(s) returned by socket() and/or bind() are now logged.
