I am having a problem with rsyncd between backuppc and a remote
windows box running the rsync package provided on the backuppc page at
sourceforge. I installed a clean version of backuppc 3.0.0, moving all
the old backups from 2.1.1 to an alternate machine should I need them
later.
The problem is that rsyncd will start this job, get through the 21 Gb
of data in the apps share from the windows server, then crash out on
getting the 60 Mb from the UPC share.
It looks like a permissions problem. I haven't experimented with
multiple rsync shares much, but perhaps do you need to set up your
secrets file so that the user has access to both folders? It may be
that the user you are using to connect with on the command line is *not*
the same user BackupPC is using... ie:
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsyncd';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = ['UPC', 'apps'];
$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = 'backuppc';
Maybe you need to try:
$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = ['backuppc', 'backuppc'];
I haven't done this sort of thing, so I'm not even sure it's allowed,
but if you let guest logins to rsync, I could see how an unprivileged
guest account would not have access to the files in your UPC share.
Just a thought.
Good luck,
