$HOME).

       --dparam=OVERRIDE, -M
              This  option  can  be  used to set a daemon‐config parameter when
              starting up rsync in daemon mode.  It is equivalent to adding the
              parameter at the end of the global settings prior  to  the  first
              module’s  definition.  The parameter names can be specified with‐
              out spaces, if you so desire.  For instance:

                  rsync ‐‐daemon ‐M pidfile=/path/rsync.pid

       --no‐detach
              When running as a daemon, this option instructs rsync to not  de‐
              tach  itself and become a background process.  This option is re‐
              quired when running as a service on Cygwin, and may also be  use‐
              ful  when rsync is supervised by a program such as daemontools or
              AIX’s System Resource Controller.   --no‐detach  is  also  recom‐
              mended  when  rsync  is run under a debugger.  This option has no
              effect if rsync is run from inetd or sshd.

       --port=PORT
              This specifies an alternate TCP port number  for  the  daemon  to
              listen on rather than the default of 873.

              See  also  the  client  version of the --port option and the port
              global setting in the rsyncd.conf manpage.

       --log‐file=FILE
              This option tells the rsync daemon to use the given log‐file name
              instead of using the "log file" setting in the config file.

              See also the client version of the --log‐file option.

       --log‐file‐format=FORMAT
              This option tells the rsync daemon to use the given FORMAT string
              instead of using the "log format" setting in the config file.  It
              also enables "transfer logging" unless the string  is  empty,  in
              which case transfer logging is turned off.

              See also the client version of the --log‐file‐format option.

       --sockopts
              This overrides the socket options setting in the rsyncd.conf file
              and has the same syntax.

              See also the client version of the --sockopts option.

       --verbose, -v
              This  option  increases the amount of information the daemon logs
              during its startup phase.  After the client  connects,  the  dae‐
              mon’s  verbosity level will be controlled by the options that the
              client used and the "max verbosity" setting in the module’s  con‐
              fig section.

              See also the client version of the --verbose option.

       --ipv4, -4 or --ipv6, -6
              Tells  rsync to prefer IPv4/IPv6 when creating the incoming sock‐
              ets that the rsync daemon will use  to  listen  for  connections.
              One  of  these options may be required in older versions of Linux
              to work around an IPv6 bug in the kernel (if you see an  "address
              already  in  use"  error when nothing else is using the port, try
              specifying --ipv6 or --ipv4 when starting the daemon).

              See also the client version of these options.

              If rsync was compiled without support for IPv6, the --ipv6 option
              will have no effect.  The  rsync --version  output  will  contain
              "no IPv6" if is the case.

       --help, -h
              When specified after --daemon, print a short help page describing
              the options available for starting an rsync daemon.

FILTER RULES
       The  filter  rules  allow  for  custom control of several aspects of how
       files are handled:

       o      Control which files the sending side puts into the file list that
              describes the transfer hierarchy

       o      Control which files the receiving  side  protects  from  deletion
              when the file is not in the sender’s file list

       o      Control  which  extended attribute names
