I recently updated to the latest version of portage, which at the time was 2.0.51.19 and now emerge sync fails.
"@ERROR: Unknown module 'metadata'
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (1061 bytes read so far)
rsync: error in rsync protocol data cream (code 12) at io.c(189)
THen some green text with how Rsync didn't finish and I should use 'emerge-websync' to get the latest cvs tree.
Network/firewall settings have not changed in three years.
Any ideas?

I had a similar problem today:

@ERROR: Unknown module 'portage'

192.168.178.20 is my local rsyncd for portage (see[url] http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/rsync.xml[/url])
I not that familiar with rsync, but I suddenly remembered about the last etc-update with reset /etc/rsync/rsynd.conf
It had a section like:
| Code: |
[portage]
path=/usr/portage
|
Recreating the [portage] - part ( I guess, thatś the missing module ) fixed my problem on the client side
->>
in your case, I gues you had a [metadata] section which would have to be recreated.... |
