Problem with the site ftp.br.debian.org.



There seems to be an rsyncd misconfiguration in the site ftp.br. The
non-US module had its name changed to lower case, non-us:

latt:/home/delyra> rsync rsync://ftp.br.debian.org/debian-non-US
@ERROR: Unknown module 'debian-non-US'
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (51 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(150)
latt:/home/delyra> rsync rsync://ftp.br.debian.org/
debian          official debian mirror (~110GB)
debian-non-us   non-us debian mirror (~1GB)
ubuntu          official debian mirror (~54GB)

Howeve, using the name in lower case leads to a missing directory:

latt:/home/delyra> rsync rsync://ftp.br.debian.org/debian-non-us
@ERROR: chroot failed
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (34 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(150)

In fact it seems that the directory is still with the correct name:

latt:/home/delyra> ftp ftp.br.debian.org
Connected to ftp.br.debian.org.

drwxr-xr-x    8 0        0            4096 Mar 17 20:49 debian
drwxr-xr-x    6 0        0             132 Aug 02  2004 debian-non-US
drwxr-xr-x    7 0        0              68 Mar 17 16:43 ubuntu

My guess is, someone mistakenly lower-cased the rsyncd.conf file.
