groupadd -g 49 rsyncd &&
useradd -c "rsyncd Daemon" -d /home/rsync -g rsyncd -s /bin/false -u 49 rsyncd

cat > /etc/rsyncd.conf << "EOF"
motd file = /home/rsync/welcome.msg
use chroot = yes
uid = rsyncd
gid = rsyncd

[localhost]
  path = /home/rsync
  comment = Default rsync module
  read only = yes
  list = yes
EOF
