I have checked the setting based on your
recommendations and this is what I now have trying to
simplify.
On Linux /var/lib/backuppc/WinXP/config.pl
##Rsyncd for wolf
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsyncd';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = 'cDrive';
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = ['/rsyncd', '/Documents and
Settings'];
#$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['/Documents and
Settings/*/Local Settings'];
#$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = 'backuppc';
#$Conf{RsyncdPasswd} = '****';
On the WinXP box C:\rsyncd\rsyncd.conf
hosts allow = 192.168.1.10
use chroot = false
log file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.log
pid file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.pid
lock file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.lock
[cDrive]
path = /cygwin/c
comment = Entire C
strict modes = true
auth users = backuppc
secrets file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.secrets
read only = false
list = false
My results:
2006-08-24 08:09:57 full backup started for directory
cDrive
2006-08-24 08:09:58 Got fatal error during xfer (auth
failed on module cDrive)
2006-08-24 08:10:03 Backup aborted (auth failed on
module cDrive)
I have tried both forward and back slash on the XP box
config file with no luck.
Any other suggestions?
