Simple RSync Daemon — Project Status

Last updated: May 2026
Current version: v0.3.1 Beta

Overview

Lightweight C++ daemon with a custom file-sync protocol, module-based paths, and cross-platform packaging. Beta quality for controlled deployments — not general production.

Release tier Status
Distribution ✅ v0.3.0+
Beta ✅ v0.3.1
Security-ready ❌ v0.4.0
Production ❌ v0.5.0

Details: PRODUCTION_GATE.md · HONEST_ASSESSMENT.md

Completed

Build & packaging (~95%)

  • CMake + GNUmakefile; make static-package
  • DEB, RPM, FreeBSD PKG, macOS PKG/DMG on GitHub releases
  • macOS: /usr/local/bin, /etc/simple-rsyncd/, LaunchDaemon

Core daemon (beta scope)

  • Custom protocol: LIST, GET, PUT, DELETE, STAT + key=value args
  • FileSystemModule: list, transfer, delete, mkdir/rmdir, path checks
  • INI configuration and validation
  • Password auth (SHA-256 + legacy plain-text entries)
  • Sessions and network accept loop
  • CTest 5/5 — Config, Module, Protocol, Auth, Integration

Documentation (May 2026)

  • README, project/* internal docs, user guide intro aligned to v0.3.1 Beta

Not ready (by design)

  • TLS handshake on the wire
  • Native rsync(1) client compatibility
  • Runtime rate limiting and IP enforcement
  • OAuth2, Prometheus, production observability
  • bcrypt/argon2 (SHA-256 today)
