 The default is no "hosts deny" option, which means all hosts can connect.
 
+dit(bf(transfer logging)) The "transfer logging" option enables per-file 
+logging of downloads and uploads in a format somewhat similar to that
+used by ftp daemons. If you want to customise the log formats look at
+the log format option.
+
+dit(bf(log format)) The "log format" option allows you to specify the
+format used for logging file transfers when transfer logging is
+enabled. The format is a text string containing embedded single
+character escape sequences prefixed with a percent (%) character.
+
+The prefixes that are understood are:
+
+itemize(
+  it() %h for the remote host name
+  it() %a for the remote IP address
+  it() %l for the length of the file in bytes
+  it() %p for the process id of this rsync session
+  it() %o for the operation, which is either "send" or "recv"
+  it() %f for the filename
+  it() %P for the module path
+  it() %m for the module name
+  it() %t for the current time
+  it() %u for the authenticated username (or the null string)
+  it() %b for the number of bytes actually transferred 
+  it() %c when sending files this gives the number of checksum bytes
+    received for this file
+)
+
+The default log format is "%o %h [%a] %m (%u) %f %l"
+
+A perl script called rsyncstats to summarise this format is included
+in the rsync source code distribution.
+
+dit(bf(timeout)) The "timeout" option allows you to override the
+clients choice for IO timoeut for this module. Using this option you
+can ensure that rsync won't wait on a dead client forever. The timeout
+is specified in seconds. A value of zero means no timeout and is the
+default. A good choice for anonymous rsync servers may be 600 (giving
+a 10 minute timeout).
