Thanks for the reply. I took the "Last error is "fileListReceive
failed" from the Backup Summary page for the host in question. I should
have posted from the actual error log, which has this ...
SNIP ...........
Fatal error (bad version): Permission denied
(publickey,keyboard-interactive).
fileListReceive() failed
SNIP ...........
I'm not sure what "bad version" refers to, but "Permission denied" seems
clear enough. Backups succeed when I use a passwordless key, and also
succeed when I use a key with a password but manually start the daemon
as the backuppc user. So, I think the problem is with the ssh
authentication, not the rsync options.
