rsync password mismatch although it is a scp copy
The following command results in auth fail:
sudo rsync -zvrtp db_backup_test/* rsync_backup@172.28.15.15::backupmysql --password-file=/etc/rsyncd.secrets --port=873
@ERROR: auth failed on module backupmysql
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1516) [sender=3.0.9]
Server log shows:
The problem is secret file on server side is the one copied from the client. There is no way it has any mis-spelling.
This is rsyncd.conf:
[backupmysql]
path = /data/mysql/backup
auth users = rsync_backup
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
[other]
path = /data/other/backup
auth users = rsync_backup
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
This is rsyncd.secrets (scp from client):
rsync_backup:123456
without specifying password file, when password is prompted, I could manually input password, and then it does not have auth problem.

finally found the reason. in rsync client, password file should contain only password, notusername:herpassword.
