Full Discussion: Allowing recursion into rsyncd module directories

Allowing recursion into rsyncd module directories
Hello,

I am wondering if it is possible to allow rescursion into rsyncd modules. For example, I have a module set up like the following:
Code:
[backup]
        path = /home/backup
        write only = yes
        read only = no
        auth users = backup
        secrets file = /usr/local/etc/rsyncd.secrets

But let's say for my push command I want to use:
Code:
rsync /file/i/want/to/transfer.gz rsync://backup@192.168.30.76:9000/backup/nagios/daily

It seems to not work. It says permission denied. I don't want to set up a module specifically for /home/backup/nagios/daily because I also have folders for other server backups and daily/weekly in each of those. So I'd rather be allowed to recurse into the module with my push command.

Is this possible?

Nevermind this works by default. The directory of the folder I was trying to write to was not writable by the Rsync Daemon which is why I was getting the permission denied error.

picld_plugin_register

picld_plugin_register(3PICLTREE)			  PICL Plug-In Library Functions			  picld_plugin_register(3PICLTREE)

NAME

       picld_plugin_register - register plug-in with the daemon

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lpicltree [ library... ]
       #include <picltree.h>

       int picld_plugin_register(picld_plugin_reg_t  *regp);

DESCRIPTION

       The  picld_plugin_register() function is the function used by a plug-in module to register itself with the PICL daemon upon initialization.
       The plug-in provides its name and the entry points of the initialization and cleanup routines in the regp argument.

       typedef struct {
	       int   version;		    /* PICLD_PLUGIN_VERSION */
	       int   critical;		    /* is plug-in critical? */
	       char  *name;		    /* name of the plugin module */
	       void  (*plugin_init)(void);  /* init/reinit function */
	       void  (*plugin_fini)(void);  /* fini/cleanup function */
       } picld_plugin_reg_t;

       The plug-in module also specifies whether it is a critical module for the proper system operation. The critical field in  the  registration
       information  is	set  to  PICLD_PLUGIN_NON_CRITICAL by plug-in modules that are not critical to system operation, and is set to PICLD_PLUG-
       IN_CRITICAL by plug-in modules that are critical to the system operation. An environment  control  plug-in  module  is  an  example  for  a
       PICLD_PLUGIN_CRITICAL type of plug-in module.

       The PICL daemon saves the information passed during registration in regp in the order in which the plug-ins registered.

       Upon initialization, the PICL daemon invokes the plugin_init() routine of each of the registered plug-in modules in the order in which they
       registered. In their plugin_init() routines, the plug-in modules collect the platform configuration data and add it to the PICL tree  using
       PICLTREE interfaces(3PICLTREE).

       On reinitialization, the PICL daemon invokes the plugin_fini() routines of the registered plug-in modules in the reverse order of registra-
       tion. Then, the plugin_init() entry points are invoked again in the order in which the plug-ins registered.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. On failure, a negative value is returned.

ERRORS

       PICL_NOTSUPPORTED       Version not supported

       PICL_FAILURE	       General system failure
