That's fine, because it isn't. Your ssh should not be interfering in the rsync data stream. It is essential that, eg. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ssh -x -l root 192.168.1.2 date does not output *anything* except the date (adjust the remote command to match your taste, but 'date' is harmless enough). Just adjust the command to omit the -v switch and you should be fine. As for the -v switch to rsync (probably in $Conf{RsyncArgs}), it *is* in the example in the default config file (however, the example clearly states that it should be added *after* the default args), but I can't really imagine why you would want it, and I'm sceptical that it would work. You seem to have added switches for debugging before having a problem to debug, which are now causing a problem ... generating extra output to track down why something is not working as expected is best done when invoking the commands from a command line, not within BackupPC operation [or any other software that automatically runs commands and interprets their output].
