Hi Sairam,

Please provide more information than just "rsync daemon failed to start" . What do the rsync logs show ?

can you paste your /etc/rsyncd.conf & /etc/default/rsync please.

sairam,

Make sure you don't have "address = <172.18.117.14 >" within your /etc/rsyncd.conf
It should be "address = 172.18.117.14"

That's the only way I was able to replicate the "getaddrinfo: bind address <IP> " issue
