------- Comment #1 from wayned@samba.org  2007-10-14 16:23 CST -------
The reason for the error-exit value is that rsync output that message about not
using the RSYNC_PASSWORD environment variable as an error, which makes rsync
think that something went wrong with the file transfer.

I could have changed the message from an "FERROR" to an
"FINFO" message, but I
don't see the purpose in having rsync comment on the presence of an
environment
variable when it was explicitly told to use a file on the command-line.  I have
fixed in this in CVS by removing the message.
