[rsync]

We simplified our offering.

From the beginning, rsync.net offered standard ftp service along with ssh tools. It pleased me to offer an old fashioned standard that "just worked" and allowed some weird corner cases to function for people.

Simultaneously, I wanted a "clean" nmap. I wanted to see port 22 and nothing else. So, we disabled ftp (and with it, inetd on all of our FreeBSD storage arrays) and reduced our attack surface as well as the number of processes we need to run and audit.

We made this change about 18 months ago...
