			From the rsync man page:

			<pre>
			STARTING AN RSYNC DAEMON TO ACCEPT CONNECTIONS
			In order to connect to an rsync daemon, the remote system needs to have a daemon already running (or
			it needs to have configured something like inetd to spawn an rsync daemon for incoming connections
			on a particular port). For full information on how to start a daemon that will handling incoming
			socket connections, see the rsyncd.conf(5) man page -- that is the config file for the daemon, and
			it contains the full details for how to run the daemon (including stand-alone and inetd configura‐
			tions).

			If you're using one of the remote-shell transports for the transfer, there is no need to manually
			start an rsync daemon.
