This indicates that your rsyncd-configuration is wrong. 1) Make sure that rsyncd is started by: rsync localhost:: This should return all configured shares. This hould return a line with the RSYNCD-SHARENAME 2) Make sure that you can connect to the share with rsync [EMAIL PROTECTED]::RSYNCD-SHARENAME This should return a list of the files after asking for your RSYNCD-PASSWORD I guess you made a mistake configuring username,password,sharename? Or maybe rsyncd is not running? Maybe try to see if rsync is running? ps -A|grep rsync Good luck. - Kurt ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
