A few days ago I noticed that none of my hosts are backing up. All but two give the error, "no ping (ping too slow: 38.94msec (threshold is 35msec))" -- or some similar ping.
One such host is named "shipping" in backuppc. The thing is, I can ping from the BackupPC server with no problem: $ nmblookup shipping 192.168.111.126 shipping<00> $ ping 192.168.111.126 PING 192.168.111.126 (192.168.111.126) 56(84) bytes of data. ... 4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 3002ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.130/0.138/0.151/0.016 ms so, as you can see, the ping is measured in tenths of milliseconds, not even close to the reported 38+ms. Given that, I can't help but think that backuppc is doing something very odd, but I have no idea what that might be. Could someone give me a hand? -Andrew [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 [email protected] List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
