Hello, list.

PC to be backed up: MS-Windows XP
BackupPC server: Ubuntu Linux.

When making tests using rsync username and password to copy some files 
in command line everything went allright. My rsyncd.conf and 
rsync.secret files in the Windows box are OK and files are transmitted 
OK, too.

However, when launching BackupPC process I get the following in the XferLOG

Connected to pc-gabriel:873, remote version 26
Connected to module docs
Sending args: --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group 
--devices --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive 
--checksum-seed=32761 --ignore-times . .
Read EOF:
Tried again: got 0 bytes
Done: 0 files, 0 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (Unable to read 4 bytes)
Backup aborted (Unable to read 4 bytes)

My /etc/backuppc/config.pl has the correct username and passowrd equal 
to the username and password located in the rsync.secret file at the 
host 'pc-gabriel'.

The pc-gabriel.pl file under /etc/backuppc has the name of the modules 
to backup --'docs' in this case--.


In the Windows PC the rsyncd.conf has:
[docs]
     path = c:/Documents and Settings
     comment = Documents and Settings
     strict modes = false
     auth users = hereismyuser
     secrets file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.secrets
     hosts allow = IP.of.backuppc.machine
     read only = true
     list = false


Where do I have to look for more info about the xFer error?

T.I.A.
