Are you using rsync or rsyncd?
I'm using rsyncd (XferMethod=rsyncd), in an ssh-tunnel (I repeat this
because maybe that could be the culprit):

If you want, this one is nice too:

Hi all,
i've installed BackupPC 3.2.0.
It works very well!
I'm trying to do a remote ftp server backup.
The ftp server is a internet site; i've ftp access to manage all site files.
My aim is to backup this site.
So, i create a new host, and set:
$Conf{ClientNameAlias} - the full ftp address
Tried again, running it...
Here the last log lines:

You can't directly backup an ftp host.
You could:
1) do a pre-backup script to mount the ftp site using your favorite method,
and a post-backup script to dismount it. (Dan answered this to me some time
ago)
2) Or via cron you could do wget and backup the local folder with backuppc

I'm still working on it.
Now I tried running the same backup WITHOUT tunneling through SSH, the
results are exactly the same.
What I now was wondering about is that thing about the rsync protocol
(30 vs. 28). Can anybody help me in this?
Connected to mail.omvsa.ch:873, remote version 30
Still doing trials, I checked both Linux and Windows boxes what version
of rsync they run.
Both tell me:
rsync version 3.0.5 protocol version 30
So why is the negotiated protocol version 28 and not 30?
Could this be the actual problem?

Hi Ski,
Performance is of course not really great but surprisingly good. I
evaluated (very shortly) against mounting via NFS, and NFS just sucks
with backuppc.
I think it depends on the NFS server you are using. I have over 1500
clients backing up via 7 backuppc servers attached via nfs

Hi all:
For the upcoming 3.2 release is anything being down to reap zombie
processes?
Currently if you have multiple shares being backed up on a single
host, a share is backed up and the child process is just abandoned as
far as I can tell. This leads to a bunch of zombies being generated.
