Auth failed means your UserName and Passwd didn't match correctly. Do you really have those commented out in the config file? You can test for a working rsyncd manually using rsync from the backuppc box with a syntax like: rsync [EMAIL PROTECTED]::module/ The double : indicates the protocol for a standalone rsync server and you should be prompted for a password. When you omit a destination on the command line you will just get a listing of files as the result if the connection suceeds. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
