I have successfully been able to backup Windows XP machines via rsync to the server but can’t seem to get the localhost backed up.

 

Following is my localhost.pl

 

#

# Local server backup of /etc as user backuppc

#

$Conf{XferMethod} = 'tar';

 

$Conf{TarClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo /etc/backuppc/tarCreate -v -f - -C $shareName+ --totals';

 

$Conf{TarShareName} = ['/etc'];

 

$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 1;

#EOF

 

I believe I followed the FAQ correctly to setup sudo but I receive the following message every time the server tries to backup:

 

Got fatal error during xfer (Tar exited with error 256 () status)

 

 

Suggestions?
