.... I am trying to get my Q6600-based server, running FC14-x86_64 
(button it, I am going to upgrade to CentOS6 *soon*) to backup my RPiB+ 
timeserver running NetBSD 7.0 beta as follows:

[root at Q6600:/etc, Wed Aug 12, 03:43 PM] 1178 # rsync -avviiz 
root at rpitimer::root /home/rsync/RPiTimer
opening tcp connection to rpitimer port 873
rsync: failed to connect to rpitimer (*inet_ntop failed*): Connection 
refused (111)
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(122) 
[Receiver=3.0.8]
[root at Q6600:/etc, Wed Aug 12, 03:43 PM] 1179 # uname -a
Linux Q6600 2.6.35.14-106.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Nov 23 13:07:52 UTC 
2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root at Q6600:/etc, Wed Aug 12, 03:43 PM] 1180 # whoami
root
[root at Q6600:/etc, Wed Aug 12, 03:43 PM] 1181 #

 From the RPi:

rpi # uname -a
NetBSD rpi 7.0_BETA NetBSD 7.0_BETA (RPI.201503272230Z) evbarm
rpi # cat /usr/pkg/etc/rsync/rsyncd.conf
# rsyncd.conf - Example file, see rsyncd.conf(5)
#

# Set this if you want to stop rsync daemon with rc.d scripts
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid

# Edit this file before running rsync daemon!!

[root]
         path = /
         comment = root fs ....
         hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/24

rpi # grep rsync inetd.conf
rsync           stream  tcp     nowait  root /usr/pkg/bin/rsync      
rsyncd --daemon
rpi #

Why doesn't this work ? Nothing in the messages or auth.log files on the 
RPi, nothing in my messages file on the server .... *Any* clues 
appreciated :-/ ....
