Thanks for the tips, Koen,
I followed all these instructions (at least I think I did ;-)), but my
problems were not related to excludes, I simply got no connection to the
shares:
"@ERROR: chdir failed", so maybe a permission denied error due to ACL or
similar.
Unfortunately I had no time to investigate any further (the workstation
is down right now so I can't provide any logs).
Should I use "CYGWIN=ntsec tty" with DeltaCopy, too?
=> Nope. You only need to be sure after registering the Deltacopy service
that it actually runs correctly.
I register the service as administrator (Gives error, but it shows up in
Services). Then I go the services.msc and change it from This account
(administrator) to Local System Account. If it starts then without an error
it's ok.
Whatever virtual directory I defined didn't show up when I connected
(rsync -av u...@host::), only the standard share "Backup" was displayed.
Are you running the 64bit version?
Bernhard
=> Next I added a directory to backup in Deltacopy with name cDRIVE and path
c:\
=> Use authentication: e.g backupuser and password
=> In the BackupPC config: Xfer
RsyncShareName: cDRIVE
RsyncdUsername: backupuser
RsyncdPasswd: password
That it. I can copy the Deltacopy folder after this configuration to any pc.
I only need to register the service again. You could always add multiple
backup directories in Deltacopy if you need.
