Rsyncd

Requirements

• augeas >= 0.4.0
• puppet >= 0.24.7 (which includes native augeas type)
• this file (at least while it's not part of puppet), which fixes issue #1835: http://github.com/bkearney/puppet/tree/e431fee6de4c45fb85225d5aaff412ea0763d06f/lib/puppet/provider/augeas/augeas.rb

package { ["rsync", "xinetd"]: ensure => present }
service { "xinetd": ensure => running }

  ensure => directory,
