Unfortunately this is 'just policy' and way too many people are mirroring master
directly. It would be useful if rsyncd allows us to restrict use of rsync
for non-anonymous mirroring. This would allow us to have more control over
who mirrors master directly. I haven't checked whether this is the case and
suspect that it isn't possible (it does allow you to restrict anonymous access
though).
Use of rsyncd on master and va might be a good idea anyway as it would allow
us to get rid of the mirror accounts. Also, it would remove the overhead of
running rsync over ssh.
