when doing a backup using rsyncd I recive this error:
Connected to 192.0.0.98:873, remote version 29
Error connecting to module home at 192.0.0.98:873: chdir failed
Got fatal error during xfer (chdir failed)
Backup aborted (chdir failed)
both server and client are Linux (ubuntu); I have read somewhere it is a
permission problem, but I don't know how to make rsync run as root (I
think this is the solution of the problem). My configuration files are:
=== SERVER ===
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsyncd';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = ['home','etc'];
$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 1;
$Conf{ArchiveComp} = 'bzip2';
$Conf{CompressLevel} = 9;
$Conf{PingMaxMsec} = 200;
$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = "user";
$Conf{RsyncdPasswd} = "password1";
=== Client: rsyncd.conf ===
use chroot = false
max connections = 2
[home]
uid = root
gid = root
path = "/home"
comment = "Home"
auth users = user
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
hosts allow = 192.0.0.97
strict modes = false
read only = true
list = false
Any hint? thanks a lot
