Comment 1 for bug 869235

That will be useless with the rsync configuration given in http://swift.openstack.org/howto_installmultinode.html

It gives remote write access to every one on the good network, even with a 077 umask, as rsync is running as swift

The configuration :

uid = swift
gid = swift
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
address = $STORAGE_LOCAL_NET_IP

[account]
max connections = 2
path = /srv/node/
read only = false
lock file = /var/lock/account.lock

[container]
max connections = 2
path = /srv/node/
read only = false
lock file = /var/lock/container.lock

[object]
max connections = 2
path = /srv/node/
read only = false
lock file = /var/lock/object.lock
