dit(bf(--daemon)) This tells rsync that it is to run as a rsync
daemon. If standard input is a socket then rsync will assume that it
is being run via inetd, otherwise it will detach from the current
-terminal and become a background daemon. The dameon will read the
+terminal and become a background daemon. The daemon will read the
config file (/etc/rsyncd.conf) on each connect made by a client and
respond to requests accordingly. See the rsyncd.conf(5) man page for more
details.
dit(bf(--config FILE)) This specifies an alternate config file than
-the default /etc/rsyncd.conf. This is only relevent when --daemon is

specified.
dit(bf(--port PORT)) This specifies an alternate TCP port number to use
true/false. Case is not significant in boolean values, but is preserved
in string values.

You can launch it either via inetd or as a standalone daemon. If run
