Hello,

on one client I have a problem to run my backups with rsyncd when the 
Win XP Firewall is up.

The client is connected via VPN to the server and I can run a backup 
when the windows firewall is off.

When it is on it doesn't work, of course I added a rule to allow 
connections on port 873 on my client and when I look at

        netstat -an | find "listening"

to find out which ports are open and listening I get a line:

      TCP    0.0.0.0:873   0.0.0.0:0    LISTENING

So it seems that rsyncd ore at least something else is running on port 873!?

Question: Any ideas why I can't backup with the firewall enabled?

Regards from Berlin

- Kurt
