rsync on F11 on XO-1 is giving me trouble

I do not have any wireless at home.  This is with multiple XOs 
connected to my home ethernet LAN;  the daemon is started on the 
sending XO;  the 'rsync' command is issued from the receiving XO, 
giving the dotted-decimal IP address of the (passive) sending XO.

[Collaborative Activities between XOs, such as Chat or Write, work 
fine over the wired ethernet.]

[As an experiment, I was able to manually configure F10-based 
Joyride to use mesh instead of the ethernet for 'rsync'.  But I've 
been too lazy to repeat that experiment with F11-based builds.]
