# instant-rsyncd lets you quickly set up and start a simple, unprivileged rsync
# daemon with a single module in the current directory.  I've found it
# invaluable for quick testing, and I use it when writing a list of commands
# that people can paste into a terminal to reproduce a daemon-related bug.
# Sysadmins deploying an rsync daemon for the first time may find it helpful as
# a starting point.
#
# Usage: instant-rsyncd MODULE PORT RSYNCD-USERNAME [RSYNC-PATH]
# The script asks for the rsyncd user's password twice on stdin, once to set it
# and once to log in to test the daemon.
