[sf-lug] regular backups of SF-LUG list archive resumed

[Michael Paoli]

For good (security) reason(s), sometime after approximately
2025-01-06T03:42:57
Rick Moen disabled public rsync server on linuxmafia.com.
Since the regular backups of the SF-LUG list archive from there to
the BALUG VM (which also hosts [www.]sf-lug.org) were using that,
that put that backup functionality out of commission for a bit.
Anyway, "fixed" that - the copy now does automatic failover from public
rsync to rsync over ssh,
so those regular backups have once again resumed.
The regular backups of the list roster weren't impacted
(those use wget to fetch encrypted file of the roster listing).
