Hello all, Trying to get backuppc working for a friend, over an OpenVPN net, backing up his desktop machine. Currently, having a lot of trouble getting rsync working.
Trying on the command line, with the backuppc user & pass, gives this: rsync --port 873 roger-d...@roger-desk::kDrive Password: @ERROR: chdir failed rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1383) [receiver=2.6.9] On the server, it logs this: 2009/08/14 14:37:59 [3592] name lookup failed for 10.12.0.1: Unknown server error 2009/08/14 14:37:59 [3592] connect from UNKNOWN (10.12.0.1) 2009/08/14 14:38:03 [3592] rsync: chdir /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/k: failed I used this how-to to setup the client on my windows machine: http://taksuyama.com/?page_id=9 Relevant bit of that is, I did this to create a rsyncd service on the machine: cygrunsrv.exe -I rsyncd -e CYGWIN=nontsec -p c:/cygwin/bin/rsync.exe -a "--config=c:/cygwin/rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach" Can anyone help? +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by kir...@kirrus.co.uk via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
