ls -la /etc/csync2*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  814 2010-09-28 20:07 /etc/csync2.cfg
-rw------- 1 root root   65 2010-09-10 19:17 /etc/csync2.key
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1025 2010-09-10 19:17 /etc/csync2_ssl_cert.csr
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1241 2010-09-10 19:17 /etc/csync2_ssl_cert.pem
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1675 2010-09-10 19:17 /etc/csync2_ssl_key.pem

This is how i generated the ssl certs:
-------------------------------
# openssl genrsa -out /etc/csync2_ssl_key.pem 2048
# openssl req -batch -nodes -new -key /etc/csync2_ssl_key.pem -out 
/etc/csync2_ssl_cert.csr
# openssl x509 -req -days 1825 -in /etc/csync2_ssl_cert.csr -signkey 
/etc/csync2_ssl_key.pem -out /etc/csync2_ssl_cert.pem
-------------------------------

After reading this:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=501289

I edited '/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf' on the '[ req_distinguished_name ]' part:
-------------------------------
commonName_default =
-------------------------------

To set the "CN" filed of the ssl cert empty. It is a work-around for a bug in 
gnutls.

Also, i'm not seeing the backup directory in the configuration file .
Weird things happen when csync2 cannot backup the file it is updating.
Mine is configured like this:

-------------------------------
backup-directory /var/backups/csync2 ;
backup-generations 3 ;
-------------------------------

Guess that's it.
Scream if you still need help. ;)
