A Buffalo WZR-HP-G300HN is a Wireless Router/Access Point. OpenWRT is a version of Linux you can install on many wireless routers.
This thread http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-lists-3/backuppc-21/installation-problems-backuppc-servermesg-hangs-100151/#332323 has another person asking about the same problem I was actually responding to that thread and it seems it's replicated into the mailing list. So, that's what I'm trying to get BackupPC working on. Problem is I'm not a very good perl programmer. I can see that there must be a problem with how it's adding up the file handlers into a single variable and passing that into the select command to watch. It seems that the backuppc service never actually gets the requests from clients because it doesn't hear them. Probably because whatever number is being passed to the select command is wrong. I think that could be caused by big/little endian differences but I haven't really a clue on how to fix them. There were a few people working on this issue when it was last posted and I thought maybe they might some new ideas especially considering some of this info wasn't present last time around.
