[plug] Installfest - Gentoo installs?

[William Kenworthy]

gentoo server:

in /etc/rsync/rsync.conf

[distfiles]
uid = portage
gid = portage
path = /usr/portage/distfiles
auth users = gentoo
secrets file = /etc/rsync/rsyncd.secrets
readonly = yes


then 
"/etc/init.d/rsyncd start"
"rc-update add rsyncd default"

I use a user/password in the clients /etc/make.conf, however for
something like the installfest, an open server would be fine.  I have a
fairly comprehensive distfiles, but there is the hassel of getting the
data to the installfest ...
