rsync error message --> " nameserver : nameserver cannot open "

[salimwng]

I have installed rsync ( 2.1.0 protocol version 19 ) on SCO Unix Sys V. I have made the necessary changes also in /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf and have rebooted the machine so that both can have the rsync daemon started.

But still it is not working.

DESCRIPTION OF MACHINES;

Machine 1 , servername is Unix486.AWDOM --> IP 10.0.0.10
Machine 2 , servername is DemoUnix.AWDOM --> IP 10.0.0.3

When i type the command from machine 2, like ;

root> rsync Unix486.AWDOM::/u/peg/IDA/pglog.dat /u/bak

I have the following error message;
failed to connect to Unix486.AWDOM - Connection refused

When i type another command from machine 2, like ;

root> rsync root@Unix486.AWDOM::/u/peg/IDA/pglog.dat /u/bak

I obtain the same error message as above, that is failed to connect to Unix486.AWDOM - connection refused.

Now when i type another command, but this one with a single colon, like this;

root> rsync Unix486.AWDOM:/u/peg/IDA/pglog.dat /u/bak

I obtain a new type of error message --> "Unix486.AWDOM: Unix486.AWDOM: cannot open"

What do you think could be wrong in that ? Did i miss something somewhere ?

Thanks for your input,
Regards.
